DNA topoisomerase I (topo I) is involved in the regulation of DNA supercoiling, gene transcription, and rDNA recombination. However, little is known about interactions between topo I and other nuclear proteins. We used affinity chromatography with a topo I fusion protein to screen U-937 leukemic cell extracts and have identified nucleolin as a topo I-binding protein. Coimmunoprecipitation and other studies demonstrate that the interaction between topo I and nucleolin is direct. Furthermore, deletion analyses have identified the 166-210-amino acid region of topo I as sufficient for the interaction with nucleolin. Since nucleolin has been implicated in nuclear transport and in a variety of transcriptional processes, the interaction with topo I may relate to the cellular localization of topo I or to the known role of this topoisomerase in transcription.
