The Cytotoxicity of Duocarmycin Analogues is Mediated through Alkylation of DNA, not Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 1: A Comment

The answer lies in the DNA: Recent claims that the alkylation of a particular protein contributes to the cytotoxicity of the duocarmycins could not be substantiated. The evidence, like the fluorescent signal derived from a clickable analogue, points instead to a reaction occurring in the nucleus.
