Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "ChemBioChem"
DOI: 10.1002/cbic.202100275
Abstract: Proline‐rich macrocyclic peptides (PRMPs) are natural products present in geographically and phylogenetically dispersed marine sponges. The large diversity and low abundance of PRMPs in sponge metabolomes precludes isolation and structure elucidation of each individual PRMP… read more here.
