A. Fujie et al., FR131535, a novel water-soluble echinocandin-like lipopeptide: Synthesis and biological properties, BIOORG MED, 11(3), 2001, pp. 399-402
The synthesis and biological properties of a novel water-soluble echinocand
in-like lipopeptide, FR131535, are described. This compound displayed poten
t in vitro and in vivo antifungal activities. The hemolytic activity of FR9
01379 was reduced by replacing the acyl side chain. This compound showed go
od water-solubility, comparable to the natural product FR901379. (C) 2001 E
