Product Description: BMH-22, a benzonaphthyridin, is a RNA polymerase I (Pol I) transcription inhibitor independent of p53 function. BMH-22 causes reorganization of nucleolar marker proteins consistent with segregation of the nucleolus. BMH-22 destabilizes RPA194 in a proteasome-dependent manner and inhibits nascent rRNA synthesis and expression of the 45S rRNA precursor. BMH-22 shows potent anticancer activity across many tumor types[1].
Applications: Cancer-programmed cell death
Formula: C16H17N3
