This report describes the expression of the human DNA topoisomerase I (hTOP1) gene in HeLa cells and in adenovirus-transformed cells. Specific promoter-binding proteins are present in HeLa cells which resemble the nuclear factor for interleukin-6 expression (NF-IL6). It was also found that NF-IL6 can substitute for the viral regulatory protein E1A in adenovirus infection. 49 refs., 10 figs.
