Beschreibung

4-Demethylwyosine is a metabolite found in the bacterium Pyrococcus furiosus. It is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of 2-amino-3,5-dimethyoxybenzoic acid. 4-Demethylwyosine has been shown to inhibit cancer cell proliferation by inhibiting the synthesis of lysine residues and base formation. This inhibition may be due to its methyl transferase activity, which leads to decreased levels of methionine, or it may be due to its ability to act as a carboxylate group donor. 4-Demethylwyosine has also been shown to bind with DNA and RNA, regulating posttranscriptional processes such as protein translation and transcription.
