A new inhibitor of
DNA methyltransferase
named DMI-1 has been discovered in the culture filtrate of Streptomyces sp. strain No. 560. DMI-1 was purified by extraction with ethyl acetate followed by Diaion HP-20SS and silica gel column chromatography. The structure of DMI-1 was determined to be 8-methylpentadecanoic acid (
C16H32O2
). DMI-1 is a novel inhibitor of methyltransferase isolated from microorganisms and is structurally different from sinefungin and A9145C which are structural analogs of S-adenosylmethionine (methyl donor). DMI-1 was a strong inhibitor of N6-methyladenine-
DNA methyltransferase
(M. Eco RI, EC 2.1.1.72) in a noncompetitive manner and its inhibition depended on the pH and temperature in the assay media.
