Biological activity and DNA Sequence Specificity of Synthetic Carbamoyl Analogues of Distamycin

A new penta(N-methylpyrrole carboxamide) analogue of the antibiotic distamycin has been synthesized in which the N-terminal formylamino group was replaced by a carbamoyl moiety. It was substantially more stable than distamycin in aqueous solution and bound to DNA with about the same affinity constan...
