Furamidine is also a selective and cell-permeable protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) inhibitor with an IC50 of 9.4 μM. Furamidine is selective for PRMT1 over PRMT5, PRMT6, and PRMT4 (CARM1) (IC50s of 166 μM, 283 μM, and >400 μM, respectively). Furamidine (DB75) is abisbenzamidine derivative and an antiparasite agent. Furamidine is a potent, reversible and competitive tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP-1) inhibitor. Inhibition of TDP-1 by Furamidine is effective both with single- and double-stranded DNA substrates but is slightly stronger with the duplex DNA.

Furamidine is a cell-permeable, selective inhibitor of protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1). Furamidine binds to strings of AT base pair sequences in DNA′s minor groove. Furamidine targets the enzyme active site and is primarily competitive with t
