l�ll Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase as a target for anticancer therapy Dexheimer TS; Antony S; Marchand C; Pommier YAnticancer Agents Med Chem 2008[May]; 8 (4): 381-9Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) is a recently discovered enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of 3'-phosphotyrosyl bonds. Such linkages form in vivo following the DNA processing activity of topoisomerase I (Top1). For this reason, Tdp1 has been implicated in the repair of irreversible Top1-DNA covalent complexes, which can be generated by either exogenous or endogenous factors. Tdp1 has been regarded as a potential therapeutic co-target of Top1 in that it seemingly counteracts the effects of Top1 inhibitors, such as camptothecin and its clinically used derivatives. Thus, by reducing the repair of Top1-DNA lesions, Tdp1 inhibitors have the potential to augment the anticancer activity of Top1 inhibitors provided there is a presence of genetic abnormalities related to DNA checkpoint and repair pathways. Human Tdp1 can also hydrolyze other 3'-end DNA alterations including 3'-phosphoglycolates and 3'-abasic sites indicating it may function as a general 3'-DNA phosphodiesterase and repair enzyme. The importance of Tdp1 in humans is highlighted by the observation that a recessive mutation in the human TDP1 gene is responsible for the inherited disorder, spinocerebellar ataxia with axonal neuropathy (SCAN1). This review provides a summary of the biochemical and cellular processes performed by Tdp1 as well as the rationale behind the development of Tdp1 inhibitors for anticancer therapy.|*Antineoplastic Agents/chemistry/pharmacology/therapeutic use[MESH]|*DNA Damage[MESH]|*DNA Repair[MESH]|*Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors/chemistry/pharmacology/therapeutic use[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Models, Molecular[MESH]|Molecular Structure[MESH]|Neoplasms/*drug therapy/enzymology[MESH]|Phosphoric Diester Hydrolases/*metabolism[MESH]|Protein Binding[MESH]|Substrate Specificity[MESH] |
