is toxins can block DNA synthesis

1 answer

Yes, certain toxins have the ability to block DNA synthesis. Some examples include chemotherapeutic drugs like cisplatin and doxorubicin, which can inhibit DNA replication and cell division. Other toxins, such as aflatoxins produced by certain molds, can also interfere with DNA synthesis by binding to DNA and causing mutations.
