An overview of the visualisation and quantitation of low and high MW DNA adducts using the trapped in agarose DNA immunostaining (TARDIS) assayIan G Cowell
Institute for Cell and Molecular Biosciences, Medical School, Catherine Cookson Building, Framlington Place, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE2 4HH, UK
Mutagenesis 26:253-60. 2011..Here, we give a perspective of the TARDIS assay including a comparison with other methods for quantifying topoisomerase-DNA covalent complexes and provide technical details required to set up and perform the assay...- Model for MLL translocations in therapy-related leukemia involving topoisomerase IIβ-mediated DNA strand breaks and gene proximityIan G Cowell

Northern Institute for Cancer Research, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom
Clin Cancer Res 14:3984-92. 2008..We hypothesized that inhibiting DNA-PK would sensitize CLL cells to drug-induced DNA damage and that this approach could increase the therapeutic index of agents used to treat CLL... - Nuclear distribution of human DNA topoisomerase IIbeta: a nuclear targeting signal resides in the 116-residue C-terminal tailI G Cowell
The Medical School, University of Newcastle, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE2 4HH, United Kingdom
