Uses
Chartreusin is an antiproliferative agent that inhibits topoisomerase II.
Uses
Chartreusin is an antitumor antibiotic that binds to GC-rich tracts in DNA, with a clear preference for B-DNA over Z-DNA. It inhibits RNA synthesis and causes single-strand scission of DNA via the formation of free radicals. Chartreusin is also a potent inhibitor of topoisomerase II.
