Description

Antibiotic and antitumor agent. Covalently binds DNA forming intra-and interstrand crosslinks. Inhibits DNA synthesis. Mitomycin C is part of a family of azidine natural products. It is a DNA crosslinking and damaging agent making it useful as an antibiotic antitumor product. When crosslinking Mitomycin C displays absolute specificity and high efficiency for the CpG sequence. Mammalian Cells treated with Mitomycin C (0.4 mg/mL for 5 min) can undergo apoptosis through upregulation of Bad, Fas, FasL and phosphorylated p53 along with activation caspases 3,8, and 9 activating both the intrinsic and extrinsic pathway for apoptosis.
