Chemical Structure
Furamidine
Synonym(s): DB75; NSC 305831
- CAS No.: 73819-26-8
- Formula:C18H16N4O
- Molecular Weight:304.35
IUPAC Name: 4,4'-(furan-2,5-diyl)dibenzimidamide
InChIKey: ZJHZBDRZEZEDGB-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: N=C(C1=CC=C(C2=CC=C(C3=CC=C(C(N)=N)C=C3)O2)C=C1)N
Biological Activity: Furamidine (DB75) is a selective protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) inhibitor with an IC50 of 9.4 μM. Furamidine is selective for PRMT1 over PRMT5, PRMT6, and PRMT4 (CARM1) (IC50s of 166 µM, 283 µM, and >400 µM, respectively). Furamidine is a potent, reversible and competitive tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP-1) inhibitor. Inhibition of TDP-1 by Furamidine is effective both with single- and double-stranded DNA substrates but is slightly stronger with the duplex DNA. Furamidine is also an antiparasite agent[1][2][3].
