Abstract
We have observed that in the absence of hydrogen peroxide the Fe(III)-bleomycin (BLM) complex exhibits high DNA cleavage efficiency, converting supercoiled Form I DNA (pBR322 or phix174) to Form II (nicked, relaxed circular); the present study may give an important clue to elucidate the fact that iron-bleomycin mediated double-strand DNA cleavage requires at least one molecule of oxygen (O2) over the amount required to form 'activated bleomycin."
