Chemical Classification of Cyclic Depsipeptides
Cyclic depsipeptides (CDPs) are a family of cyclic peptide-related compounds, of which the ring is mainly composed of amino- and hydroxy acid residues joined by amide and ester bonds (at least one), leading to a wide diversity of fascinating chemical structures. They differ in both their ring structure and their side chains, especially by the nature of

The mycotoxin definition reconsidered towards fungal cyclic depsipeptides
Currently, next to the major classes, cyclic depsipeptides beauvericin and enniatins are also positioned as mycotoxins. However, as there are hundreds more fungal cyclic depsipeptides already identified, should these not be considered as mycotoxins as well?

Adsorption of cyclic depsipeptide mycotoxins to glass [PDF]
During analytical processes, adsorption of peptides, which is believed to mostly be due to non-covalent interactions and depending upon the experimental conditions, cannot only lead to significant loss of the analyte, but also to increased analytical ...

Human skin kinetics of cyclic depsipeptide mycotoxins [PDF]
Cyclic depsipeptides (CDPs) are an emerging group of naturally occurring bioactive peptides, some of which are already developed as pharmaceutical drugs, e.g. valinomycin. They are produced by bacteria, marine organisms and fungi [1].
