Hydroxyquinone O-methylation in mitomycin biosynthesis.

Journal of the American Chemical Society - 23 May 2007

Grüschow Sabine, Chang Leng-Chee, Mao Yingqing, Sherman David H

Abstract excerpt

Mitomycins are bioreductively activated DNA-alkylating agents. One member of this family, mitomycin C, is in clinical use as part of combination therapy for certain solid tumors. The cytotoxicity displayed by mitomycins is dependent on their electrochemical potential which, in turn, is governed i...
