AcLysValCit-PABC-DMAE-SW-163D is a drug-linker conjugate for antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), featuring a natural bis-intercalator, SW-163D, attached through an AcLysValCitPABC-DMAE linker[1].
BPTQ is a typical intercalator of DNA that acts by inducing a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on the proliferation of cancer cells by arresting cells at the S and G2 M phase.
Bisnafide is a Naphthalimide Analogue that acts as a DNA intercalator and topo II inhibitor. It is also an antiangiogenic agent that can normalize tumor vessels and promote the delivery of cytotoxic agents to tumor sites.
Thiocoraline is a depsipeptide and DNAbis-intercalator originally isolated fromMicromonosporawith antibacterial and anticancer activities.1,2It is active against the Gram-positive bacteriaS. aureus,B. subtilis, andM. luteus(MICs = 0.05, 0.05, and 0.03 μg ml, respectively) but not Gram-negativeE. coli,K. pneumoniae, orP. aeruginosa(MICs = >100 μg ml for all).1Thiocoraline inhibits RNA and DNA polymerase and thymidylate synthase (IC50s = 6, 6, and 15 μg ml, respectively), as well as RNA and DNA synthesisin vitro(IC50s = 0.008 and 0.4 μg ml, respectively). It is cytotoxic to P388, A549, HT-29, and MEL-28 cancer cells (IC50s = 0.002, 0.002, 0.01, and 0.002 μg ml, respectively). 1.Romero, F., Espilego, F., Pérez Baz, J., et al.Thiocoraline, a new depsipeptide with antitumor activity produced by a marine Micromonospora.

Quinaldopeptin is a quinomycin antibiotic. It is active against a variety of bacteria, including S. pyogenes, S. aureus, C. perfringens, S. faecalis, E. coli, and K. pneumoniae (MICs = 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.6, 3.1 and 6.3 μg ml, respectively). It is cytotoxic to B16 F10 and Moser cells (IC50s = 0.0008 and 0.04 μg ml, respectively) and increases survival in a P388 leukemia mouse model. Quinaldopeptin is a bis-intercalator depsipeptide (NPBID) that binds to and intercalates into DNA (Kd = 32 nM).
Amustaline (S-303) dihydrochloride is a nucleic acid-targeted alkylator recognized for its efficacy as a pathogen inactivation agent in blood components containing red blood cells. This compound comprises three key elements: an acridine anchor (a non-covalently bonding intercalator targeting nucleic acids), an effector (a bis-alkylator group that interacts with nucleophiles), and a linker (a flexible carbon chain with a labile ester bond, hydrolyzing at neutral pH to non-reactive products).
Bisantrene (CL-216942; NSC 337766) is a topoisomerase II poison and DNA intercalator. It can be used as a Rac1 inhibitor or model compound to study P-glycoprotein-mediated multi-drug resistance (MDR1). Bisantrene inserts and disrupts the configuration of
Pixantrone (BBR 2778 (free base)) hydrochloride is a mitoxantrone analog compound that acts as a topoisomerase II inhibitor and DNA intercalator. It displays anti-tumor activity [1] [2].
Bisnafide is a Naphthalimide Analogue that acts as DNA intercalator and topo II inhibitor. It is also an antiangiogenic agent. Antiangiogenic agents can normalize tumor vessels and promote the delivery of cytotoxic agents to tumor sites.
