callipeltin a | A 10-membered cyclodepsipeptide containing four amino acids in the L- configuration, Ala, Leu, Thr (2 residues); one (Arg) in the D-configuration; two N-methyl amino acids, N-MeAla and N-MeGln; a methoxy tyrosine, a 3, 4-dimethyl-L-glutamine, and a 4-amino-7-guanidino-2,3 dihydroxypentanoic acid (AGDHE), formally derived from L-Arg. It is obtained from the shallow water sponge Callipelta and has been found to show activity against HIV virus. | callipeltin A |
cytochalasin b | An organic heterotricyclic compound, that is a mycotoxin which is cell permeable an an inhibitor of cytoplasmic division by blocking the formation of contractile microfilaments. | cytochalasin B |
ecteinascidin 743 | A tetrahydroisoquinoline alkaloid obtained from a Caribbean tunicate Ecteinascidia turbinata. Used for the treatment of soft tissue sarcoma and relapsed ovarian cancer. | trabectedin |
ellagic acid | An organic heterotetracyclic compound resulting from the formal dimerisation of gallic acid by oxidative aromatic coupling with intramolecular lactonisation of both carboxylic acid groups of the resulting biaryl. It is found in many fruits and vegetables, including raspberries, strawberries, cranberries, and pomegranates. | ellagic acid |
