毒理性
Altertoxin-1 已显示出具有基因毒性和诱变性质。它表现出DNA损伤活性,如单链和双链DNA断裂、DNA嵌入和DNA交联,以及诱导DNA修复合成和抑制DNA复制。这些效应至少部分是由于其能够与DNA小沟槽高亲和力结合,这抑制了拓扑异构酶等DNA作用酶的活性。(A2977, A2978, A2979)
Altertoxin-1 has been shown to have genotoxic and mutagenic properties. It has demonstrated DNA-damaging activities such as single-strand and double-strand DNA breaks, DNA-intercalating, and DNA cross-linking, as well as induction of DNA repair synthesis and inhibition of DNA replication. These effects are thought to be at least partially due to its ability to bind to the DNA minor groove with high affinity, which inhibits the activity of DNA-acting enzymes such as topoisomerase.
