<p>5-Methyl-2-thioxoimidazolidin-4-one (MTI) is an antibacterial agent that has been shown to have a strong inhibitory effect against Staphylococcus epidermidis. MTI has been shown to be an effective antidiabetic, pesticide, and antibacterial agent. It also has a tautomeric form that reversibly binds to the active site of bacterial DNA topoisomerase II, which prevents the rewinding of DNA and inhibits transcription. MTI is used in the treatment of mammalian cells for cancer treatment. In addition, it can alkylate DNA bases and disrupts the DNA replication process.</p>

<p>3,4,5-Trimethyl-2(5H)-furanone (3,4,5-TMF) is a compound that has been identified as a germination inhibitor. 3,4,5-TMF inhibits the germination of lettuce seeds and wheat seeds. It is speculated that this inhibition may be due to the ability of 3,4,5-TMF to inhibit regulatory enzymes in the germination process. This compound also has neuroprotective properties and may be used for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. 3,4,5-TMF belongs to a group of compounds called furanones which are found in plants such as Triticum aestivum and Arabidopsis thaliana. Furanones are related to other phytochemicals such as flavonoids and phenolic acids.</p>
