Phakillestatins: an underwater unsolved puzzle

A critical summary on the discovery of the nineteen members of the phakellistatin family (phakellistatin 1-19), cytotoxic proline‐rich cyclopeptides of marine origin, is reported. Isolation, structural elucidation, and biological properties of the various‐sized natural macrocycles are described, alo...

Sumario:A critical summary on the discovery of the nineteen members of the phakellistatin family (phakellistatin 1-19), cytotoxic proline‐rich cyclopeptides of marine origin, is reported. Isolation, structural elucidation, and biological properties of the various‐sized natural macrocycles are described, along with the total syntheses and the enigmatic issues of the cytotoxic activity reproducibility.
