Echinomycin, Quinomycin A [Q-1112]
Description: Echinomycin, also called Quinomycin A, is an anti-tumor antibiotic. It demonstrates broad activity against bacteria, fungi, viruses; however, echinomycin's ability to be a potent inhibitor of Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) has sparked significant research interest. The HIF-1 transcription factor plays an essential role in tumor progression and metastasis.
