Topoisomerase Cassytha filiformis

Hoet S, Stevigny C, Block S, et al. Alkaloids from Cassytha filiformis and related apor-phines anti-trypanosomal activity, cytotoxicity, and interaction with DNA and topoisomerases. Planta Med 2004 70 407-413. 

Cassytha filiformis L., mentioned earlier, contains aporphine alkaloids such as actin odaphnine, cassythine, and dicentrine, which effectively bind to DNA and behave as typical intercalating agents and interfere with the catalytic activity of topoisomerases (3,10,11).
