Product name:Chartreusin
Product description:Chartreusin is a potent anti-proliferative agent originally derived from Streptomyces chartreusis. This compound has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of the catalytic activity of topoisomerase II. Experiments have reported that Chartreusin binds to GC-rich tracts in DNA, inhibits RNA synthesis, and causes single-strand scission of DNA via formation of free radicals. Additionally, this agent has been shown to inhibit formation of several DNA-protein complexes.
