De. Williams et al., THE ISOLATION OF MAJUSCULAMIDE-C FROM THE SPONGE PTILOCAULIS-TRACHYS COLLECTED IN ENEWETAK AND DETERMINATION OF THE ABSOLUTE-CONFIGURATION OF THE 2-METHYL-3-AMINOPENTANOIC ACID RESIDUE, Journal of natural products, 56(4), 1993, pp. 545-551
Majusculamide C [1], a cyclic depsipeptide metabolite of the blue-gree
n alga Lyngbya majuscula, has been isolated from the sponge Ptilocauli
s trachys collected at Enewetak Atoll in the Marshall Islands. The abs
olute configuration of the novel beta amino acid 2-methyl-3-aminopenta
noic acid (MAP), a component of the structure of 1, has been determine
d to be 2S,3R.
