Chemical Name: (2E,4E,6E,8E)-Mono[(3R,4S,5S,6R)-5-methoxy-4-[(2R,3R)-2-methyl-3-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)oxiranyl]-1-oxaspiro[2.5]oct-6-yl] 2,4,6,8-decatetraenedioic acid ester
Biological Activity
Fumagillin is an antibiotic and antiangiogenic agent; covalently binds and inhibits methionine aminopeptidase-2. Inhibits endothelial cell proliferation in vitro and tumor-induced angiogenesis in vivo. Also inhibits tumor growth in mice.Technical Data
