Indole Alkaloids of the Stigonematales (Cyanophyta): Chemical Diversity, Biosynthesis and Biological Activity
The cyanobacteria are well recognized as producers of a wide array of bioactive metabolites including toxins, and potential drug candidates. However, a limited number of taxa are generally considered with respect to both of these aspects. That said, the order Stigonematales, although largely overlooked in this regard, has become increasingly recognized as a source of bioactive metabolites relev...
متن کاملBiosynthesis of the indole and Colchicum alkaloids.
There has been enormous progress over the past fifteen years or so in our understanding of the ways in which complex natural products are synthesized in living systems. In the field of alkaloids, as elsewhere, research during the initial phase1 pin-pointed those substances which are used as the common building blocks, examples being acetic acid, ornithine and lysine for the reduced systems, and...
متن کاملUnprecedented Utilization of Pelargonidin and Indole for the Biosynthesis of Plant Indole Alkaloids.
Nudicaulins are a group of indole alkaloid glycosides responsible for the color of yellow petals of Papaver nudicaule (Iceland poppy). The unique aglycone scaffold of these alkaloids attracted our interest as one of the most unusual flavonoid-indole hybrid structures that occur in nature. Stable isotope labeling experiments with sliced petals identified free indole, but not tryptamine or l-tryp...
متن کاملPotential antimalarial activity of indole alkaloids.
New antimalarial treatments are now urgently required, following the emergence of resistance to the most used drugs. Natural products contribute greatly to the therapeutic arsenal in this area, including artemisinin and quinine (and atovaquone, semi-synthetic). Among the natural products, indole alkaloids represent an interesting class of compounds. Screening carried out to date has revealed se...
