Cyclo(L-Hmb-D-Val-D-Leu-L-Hmb-L-Val-L-Leu-)

Uses

Sporidesmolide III is the only non-N-methylated analogue of the hexadepsipeptide sporidesmolide complex, eluting in advance of the more abundant N-methyl analogues on reverse phase HPLC. Sporidesmolide III is the demethyl analogue of sporidesmolide I and is thus comprised of D- and L- amino acids utilising two leucine and four valine sub-units, where two of the valines are converted to the corresponding valic acid. The biological activity of sporidesmolide III has not been extensively investigated.
