K-13 is an ACE inhibitor produced by Micromonospora halophytics subsp. exilisia K-13.
Uses
K-13 is a cyclic peptide compound synthesized by a specific organozinc reagent. Its synthesis process involves intermolecular and intramolecular Negishi cross-coupling reactions and is one of the shortest routes reported for the synthesis of such cyclic peptides.
