Chromomycin A3 is an anthraquinone antibiotic and antitumor agent isolated from S. griseus that is used as a fluorescent probe for DNA with excitation/emission spectra of 445/575 nm.{36032,36035} Its DNA binding is specific to two or more contiguous GC base pairs, which makes it suitable for characterizing heterochromatin in plants with species-specific AT:GC ratios.{36035,36031} Chromomycin A3 is cytotoxic against non-small cell lung cancer and cervical cancer in vitro (IC50s = 1, 42, 60, and 40 nM for HCC44, A549, ME180, and HeLa cells, respectively).{366034,31081} It also inhibits oxidative stress- and DNA damage-induced neuronal injury by enhancing Sp1 and Sp3 transcription factor binding.{36033}
