cyclolinopeptide/アマ属

Four cyclic peptides, cyclolinopeptides F-I, were isolated from seeds of Linum usitatissimum. Their structures were elucidated by extensive 2D NMR spectroscopic methods and by chemical degradation. Further, their immunosuppressive activity is examined.

Cyclolinopeptides (CLs) are octa-, nona-, and decapeptides present in flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) that may have immunosuppressive and antitumor activities, but little is known of their pharmacokinetics. Human serum albumin (HSA), the most abundant blood protein, is an important mediator of

Flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum seed) is widely used in food and natural health products. In our search for osteoclast differentiation inhibitors, some cyclic peptides isolated from flaxseed, known as the cyclolinopeptides, were discovered to have osteoclast differentiation inhibition activity. The

Cyclolinopeptide A (CLA), a cyclic nonapeptide from linseed, possesses strong immunosuppressive and antimalarial activity along with the ability to inhibit cholate uptake into hepatocytes. The structure of the peptide was studied extensively in solution as well as in the solid state. It is

Extract of Linum usitatissimum seeds was analyzed by ESI-MS and ESI-MS/MS. The analysis confirms the presence of previously reported cyclolinopeptides: CLA (c(Pro-Pro-Phe-Phe-Leu-Ile-Ile-Leu-Val) and CLB (c(Pro-Pro-Phe-Phe-Val-Ile-Met-Ile-Leu)). Cyclolinopeptides CLD and CLE, which contain

Three new orbitides (cyclolinopeptides 17, 18, and 19) were identified in flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum L.) extracts without any form of purification. Their structures were elucidated by a combination of (15) N-labeling experiments and extensive tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) with electrospray

Five new orbitides, cyclolinopeptides 21-25, were identified in flaxseed oil (Linum usitatissimum) extracts. Their HPLC-ESIMS quasimolecular ion peaks at m/z 1097.7 (21), 1115.6 (22), 1131.6 (23), 1018.6 (24), and 1034.6 (25) [M + H](+) corresponded to the molecular formulae C59H89N10O10,
