“…These peptides exhibit a variety of essential biological activities. (Horsten, 1995;Baraguey et al, 2001;Mongkolvisut et al, 2006). Investigations of the structures of these cyclic peptides have indicated that their conformations are closely related to their biological activities (Cozzolino et al, 2005;Morita et al, 1997).…”

“…A total of 24 aromatic protons were observed in the 1 H NMR spectrum. Additionally, there were characteristic aromatic signals for tyrosine (Tyr) [13] at δ C 156.2, 130.4, 128.3, and 115.1, and 16 signals for phenylalanine (Phe) [14] with chemical shifts ranging from 126.4 to 138.2 in the 13 C NMR spectrum. Together, these findings suggested that compound 1 contained four Phe residues and one tyrosine residue.…”

“…However, the members of this family are also described as a source of bioactive orbitides [13]. Even though Euphorbiaceae comprises most of the orbitides described in the literature, they were isolated from the genera Jatropha [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] and Croton [35][36][37]. The 1990s were considered the gold period of investigations of orbitides, with the discovery of several new molecules, thus demonstrating that the search for their mechanisms of action, structures, and biosynthesis needs to be expanded [7].…”

“…Examination of Jatropha mahafalensis Jum. & H. Perrier, a tree endemic to Madagascar and also used to treat infected wounds in traditional medicine, led to the isolation of two cyclic heptapeptides named mahafacyclin A (20) [79] and mahafacyclin B (21) [33]. The amino acid sequence of mahafacyclin A (20) was determined to be cyclo(-Thr 1 -Ile 2 -Leu 3 -Gly 4 -Val 5 -Phe 6 -Gly 7 -), and according to the authors it was the first natural cyclic heptapeptide without proline to present the β-bulge characteristics [79].…”
