The synthesis of a cyclic heptapeptide, delavayin-C, cyclo(gly-tyr-tyr-tyr-pro-val-pro) is described. The structure of this compound was established on the basis of analytical IR, 1H NMR and FAB mass spectral data. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of this peptide are also described.
Synthetic Studies on Pseudostellarin A.-The title compound (I) can be isolated from roots of Pseudostellaria heterophylla. It can be further used in peptide synthesis by liquid-phase method. It also shows moderate antiinflammatory and anthelmintic activity whereas its antibacterial activity is found to be low. -(HIMAJA, M.; HARISH KUMAR, K.; RAMANA, M. V.; BELAGALI, S. L.; Pol.
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.
