Additionnal Information

Plicamycin (Mithramycin A) a selective inhibitor of Sp1, is a natural polycyclic aromatic polyketide isolated from Streptomyces strains. It binds to GC-rich DNA sequences, displacing Sp1 transcription factor from oncogene promoters, inhibiting their expression, with anti-tumor and neuroprotective effects.
