Two novel human cytomegalovirus protease inhibitors, cytonic acids A (1) and B (2), have been isolated from the solid-state fermentation of the endophytic fungi Cytonaema sp. Their structures as p-tridepside isomers were elucidated by MS and NMR methods.
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.
