Enhancement of depsipeptide-mediated apoptosis of lung or esophageal cancer cells by flavopiridol: Activation of the mitochondria-dependent death-signaling pathway

open access: yes, 2003
Objective: Treating cancer cells with depsipeptide, a novel antitumor agent currently in a phase II clinical trial, causes potent upregulation of p21/WAF1 expression and cell arrest at G1 and G2 checkpoints.

Depsipeptide Intermediates Interrogate Proposed Biosynthesis of Cereulide, the Emetic Toxin of Bacillus cereus

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2015
Cereulide and isocereulides A-G are biosynthesized as emetic toxins by Bacillus cereus via a non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) called Ces. Although a thiotemplate mechanisms involving cyclo-trimerization of ready-made D-O-Leu-D-Ala-L-O-Val-L-Val ...

Cyclic Peptide Conformational Landscapes Through the Lens of Mass Spectrometry and Orthogonal Spectroscopy

open access: yesJournal of Mass Spectrometry, Volume 61, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Cyclic peptides occupy a structurally dynamic region of chemical space, where function often arises from ensembles rather than a single dominant fold. Closed backbones, frequent N‐methylation, heteroatoms, unnatural amino acids, and a strong propensity for metal coordination create dense conformational and coordination landscapes that ...

Acetylation of p53 at lysine 373/382 by the histone deacetylase inhibitor depsipeptide induces expression of p21(Waf1/Cip1)

open access: yes, 2006
Generally, histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor-induced p21(Waf1/Cip1) expression is thought to be p53 independent. Here we found that an inhibitor of HDAC, depsipeptide (FR901228), but not trichostatin A (TSA), induces p21(Waf1/Cip1) expression through ...

Histone Modifications in Cardiovascular Disease: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Opportunities

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
This graphical abstract summarizes how classical and emerging histone posttranslational modifications (PTMs), together with their chromatin regulators (writers, erasers, and readers), govern major pathobiological programs in cardiovascular disease.

Histone deacetylase inhibitor depsipeptide activates silenced genes through decreasing both CpG and H3K9 methylation on the promoter

open access: yes, 2008
Histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) has been shown to demethylate the mammalian genome, which further strengthens the concept that DNA methylation and histone modifications interact in regulation of gene expression.

Extending the Targets for Coronavirus Antivirals Beyond That of Approved Drugs: Insights From Preclinical Research

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
Chemical structure of RIBOTAC inhibitor with metabolic handle binding as nucleotide analogue to SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA dependent RNA polymerase, its linker and the RNase L recruiter which binds RNase L monomers and mediates their dimerization that actives nuclease activity degrading the viral RNA.

Concise and Stereospecific Total Synthesis of Arenastatin A and Its Segment B Analogs

open access: yesMolecules
A novel and concise synthetic method for arenastatin A, a cytotoxic cyclic depsipeptide of marine origin, was developed in this study. The convergent assembly of the four segments, including the cross-metathesis reaction, gave a cyclization precursor ...

Total Synthesis of the Antifungal Depsipeptide Petriellin A

open access: yes, 2016
We report the solid-phase total synthesis of the antifungal highly modified cyclic depsipeptide petriellin A. The synthesis confirms earlier reports on the absolute configuration of the natural product.

Synthesis of a Carbon‐Linked Acyldepsipeptide Derivative

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 15, 22 April 2026.
The synthesis of a methylene‐linked acyldepsipeptide (ADEP) is reported. Success relied upon an improve method to generate a versatile vinyl glycine methyl ester synthon and a rationally optimized Grubb’s metathesis. NMR and in silico studies revealed an unusual trans–trans proline orientation for this new unnatural ADEP analog, advancing the ...
