Structure-activity relationships of untenone A and its derivatives for inhibition of DNA polymerases

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2004 Apr 19;14(8):1975-7. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2004.01.092.

Abstract

We found that untenone A and mannzamenone A inhibit mammalian DNA polymerases alpha and beta, and human terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT). The syntheses of both compounds and the structure-activity relationships of untenone A derivatives are described.
