| Addtional Information | Synthesis Type : Ribosomal; The compound, however, is also quite toxic (50% hemolysis of human type A blood cells: HL50 13.3 uM). Also TOXIC TO HeLa cells (50% survival: IC50 1.2 uM). This is an uncyclized cyclotide (i.e. uncyclotides). Compared to cyclotides, the C-terminal D/N critical for cyclization is lacking due to a premature stop codon. Surprisingly, this linear form is not only more abundant in the plant but also more active than the circular peptides identified in the same species. ChaC11A is an Met oxidized form of the native peptide identified during purification. This oxidized form lost its activity compared to the native form.
