โฆ Synopsis
The synthesis of microcohn analogs is described using an approach that could be of considerable practical interest for structure-activity studies on microcolin and related peptides. This synthetic pathway is more efficient than the methods reported to date, and allows the variation of the Xaa-pyrrolin-2-one unit of these molecules. which has been shown to be crucial for the biological activity. 0 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd. Microcolin A and B, two lipopeptides isolated from the blue-green alga Lyngbya mqjuscula expressed potent cytotoxicity and immunesuppressive properties.
