Structure of cereulide, a cyclic dodecadepsipeptide toxin from Bacillus cereus and studies on NMR characteristics of its alkali metal complexes including a conformational structure of the K+ complex
The structure and stereochemistry of cereulide 1 or 1a, an emetic toxin produced by Bacillus cereus, have been determined through spectral analysis and chemical methods.It is a 36-membered cyclic depsipeptide with the sequence of cyclo(D-O-Leu-D-Ala-L-O-V
