N-methylated analog of Amidomycin, was synthesized by solution phase peptide synthesis using dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) as the coupling agent and triethylamine (TEA) as the base. The structure of the compound was confirmed by IR, 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, FABMASS and elemental analysis. The synthesized cyclic peptide was evaluated for Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) against four strains of bacteria and three strains of fungi. It was found to be active against both bacteria and fungi from 50-100 mg.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
