enantiomerically pure diasteroisomers of γ-benzyloxy-S-glutamic acid was performed using trans-4-hydroxy-l-proline as a source of chirality, while the erythro and threo isomers of β-benzyloxy-S-glutamic acid were prepared starting from (R)-Garner's aldehyde. All new derivatives were tested for their inhibitory activity against excitatory amino acid transporters in a rat synaptosomal preparation and their
The antifungal antibiotics, neopetins A(1), B(2) and C(3), were found to be cyclic lipopeptides containing unusual amino acids, their structures being elucidated on the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidence. They inhibited mannoprotein and β-1,3-glucan synthetases from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The structure-biological activity relationship is discussed.

Two new HIV-inhibitory depsipeptides, stellettapeptins A (1) and B (2), were isolated from an extract of the marine sponge Stelletta sp., collected from northwestern Australia. Structures of these cyclic nonribosomal peptides were elucidated on the basis of extensive NMR data analysis, and chemical degradation and derivatization studies. Stellettapeptins contain numerous nonproteinogenic amino acid
A novelantifungalantibiotic, FR901469, was isolated from an unidentified fungus No. 11243. It is a water-soluble 40-membered macrocyclic lipopeptidolactone, consisting of D-Ala, L-Tyr, L-Val, trans-4OH-L-Pro, trans-3OH-L-Pro, threo-3OH-L-Gln, Gly, L-Orn, L-Thr, three residues of D-alloThr and a (3R)-hydroxypalmitic acid. Its structure, including absolute configurations, was unequivocally determined
