Antipain is a protease inhibitor isolated from Actinomycetes. Antipain inhibits N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-induced transformation and increases chromosomal aberrations[1][2].
Merbarone is a Type II DNA topoisomerase inhibitor. Merbarone inhibits the catalytic activity of human topoisomerase IIalpha by blocking DNA cleavage. Merbarone induces activation of caspase-activated DNase and excision of chromosomal DNA loops from the n
