Product Information

• Name: Methyl 3-[(5-nitro-2-pyridinyl)oxy]-2-thiophenecarboxylate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Methyl 3-[(5-nitro-2-pyridinyl)oxy]-2-thiophenecarboxylate is a natural product that has been isolated from the bark of the Miapaca tree. This compound has shown to have acute toxicities in mice and has inhibited the growth of a number of bacterial species. It also inhibits the activity of inhibitor molecules, which are important for DNA replication. The methyl group on this compound is thought to be responsible for its biological properties, such as inhibition of locomotor activity. Methyl 3-[(5-nitro-2-pyridinyl)oxy]-2-thiophenecarboxylate binds to DNA and prevents transcription and replication by binding to both RNA polymerase II and III.
