Nucleolin functions in ribosome biogenesis and contains an acidic N terminus that binds nuclear localization sequences. In previous work we showed that human nucleolin associates with the N-terminal region of human topoisomerase I (Top1). We have now mapped the topoisomerase I interaction domain of nucleolin to the N-terminal 225 amino acids. We also show that the Saccharomyces cerevisiae nucleolin ortholog, Nsr1p, physically interacts with yeast topoisomerase I, yTop1p. Studies of isogenic NSR1(+) and Deltansr1 strains indicate that NSR1 is important in determining the cellular localization of yTop1p. Moreover, deletion of NSR1 reduces sensitivity to camptothecin, an antineoplastic topoisomerase I inhibitor. By contrast, Deltansr1 cells are hypersensitive to the topoisomerase II-targeting drug amsacrine. These findings indicate that nucleolin/Nsr1 is involved in the cellular localization of Top1 and that this localization may be important in determining sensitivity to drugs that target topoisomerases.
