Covering: up to 2023The marine environment represents a rich yet challenging source of novel therapeutics. These challenges are best exemplified by the manzamine class of alkaloids, featuring potent bioactivities, difficult procurement, and a biosynthetic pathway that has eluded characterization for over three decades. This review highlights postulated biogenic pathways toward the manzamines, evaluated in terms of current biosynthetic knowledge and metabolic precedent.
截至 2023 年海洋环境代表了一个丰富而具有挑战性的新型治疗药物来源。这些挑战在曼萨宁类生物碱中表现得最为明显,它们具有强大的生物活性、难以获得,而且其生物合成途径已经困扰了人们 30 多年,尚未得到阐明。本文综述了曼萨宁类生物碱的假定生物合成途径,根据当前的生物合成知识和代谢前例进行了评估。
