Ring-extended derivatives of gramicidin S with furanoid sugar amino acids in the turn region have enhanced antimicrobial activity

article
(Chemical Equation Presented) A series of ring-extended gramicidin S (GS) derivatives containing furanoid sugar amino acids were evaluated. Although the extended GS derivatives have a less well-defined secondary structure as determined by NMR and CD, some derivatives show an improved biological profile, namely, an increased antibacterial activity and decreased hemolytic activity. © 2009 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
