Popis: | Eight new cyanopeptolins (insulapeptolides A-H) were obtained from the cyanobacterium Nostoc insulare. Their isolation was guided by their bioactivity toward the target enzyme human leukocyte elastase, molecular biological investigations, and MALDI-TOF analysis. These peptides are selective inhibitors of human leukocyte elastase with activities in the nanomolar range. Insulapeptolide D was the most potent compound with an IC(50) value of 85 nM (K(i) value of 36 nM). |
