A novel cytotoxic cyclic heptapeptide, yunnanin C (1), was isolated from the roots of Stellaria yunnanensis. The structure of 1, cyclo(-Gly-Ile-Gly-Phe-Tyr-Ser-Pro-), was elucidated from spectroscopic evidence and by chemical degradation.
Two novel cyclic peptides, named yunnanins A and B, have been isolated from Stellaria yunnanensis (Caryophyllaceae) and their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic evidence and chemical degradation.
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.
