M. Kurimura et al., SYNTHESIS AND MITOGENIC ACTIVITY OF CHIRAL LIPOPEPTIDE WS1279 AND ITSDERIVATIVES, Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 41(11), 1993, pp. 1965-1970
Optically active lipopeptide derivatives have been synthesized by the
use of chiral glycerol derivatives. Lipopeptide WS1279 derivatives wit
h (R)-glycerol moieties showed a higher mitogenic activity than those
with the (S)-configuration. Various N-protected lipopeptide and N-depr
otected derivatives showed increased mitogenic activity.
