Preferred Label : dactinomycin;
MeSH definition : A compound composed of a two CYCLIC PEPTIDES attached to a phenoxazine that is derived
from STREPTOMYCES parvullus. It binds to DNA and inhibits RNA synthesis (transcription),
with chain elongation more sensitive than initiation, termination, or release. As
a result of impaired mRNA production, protein synthesis also declines after dactinomycin
therapy. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1993, p2015);
