Isodiospyrin is a member of biphenyls. Isodiospyrin is a natural product found in Diospyros morrisiana, Diospyros verrucosa, and other organisms with data available. Isodiospyrin, a natural dimeric naphthoquinone, is a human DNA topoisomerase I (Topoisomerase) inhibitor. Isodiospyrin can prevent both DNA relaxation and kinase activities of human topoisomerase I. Isodiospyrin shows anticancer, antibacterial and antifungal activities[1][2][3]. Isodiospyrin, a natural dimeric naphthoquinone, is a human DNA topoisomerase I (Topoisomerase) inhibitor.
