Acid;
NCIt definition : A quinone antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces rosa var. notoensis with activity
against gram-positive bacteria, mycoplasmas and fungi. Within an organism, nanaomycin
A is first reduced by flavin or NADH dehydrogenase then rapidly autooxidized leading
to the production of singlet molecular oxygen (O2-). The increase in intracellular
O2- results in inhibition of DNA, RNA and cell-wall peptidoglycan synthesis. Further,
nanaomycin A may have antineoplastic properties resulting from a reduction in DNA
methylation by inhibiting DNA methyltransferase 3B (DNMT3B) and reactivating the tumor
suppressor gene RASSF1A.;
