| Addtional Information | Synthesis Type : Ribosomal|shows 56% Killing against Caenorhabditis elegans at 100 ¼g/ml|shows 51% Killing against Caenorhabditis elegans at 10 ¼g/ml ; Active against E. coli, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, and fungus C. albicans. It showed weak hemolysis activity. Since piceain 1 contains three additional residues at the N-terminus, it remains to be established whether piceain 2 is a natural form or simply a derivative of piceain 1. CD suggests a beta structure. Updated 4/29/14. |
