摘要: RA-VII (1) and related bicyclic hexapeptides, isolated from Rubiaceous plants, Rubia akame,showed potent antitumor activity and in fact, RA-VII is currently undergoing phase Ⅱ clinical trial in Japan. It inhibit protein synthesis through binding,to eukaryotic 80S ribosomes, resulting in inhibition of aminoacyl-tRNA binding formation and peptidyl-tRNA translocation. The complex molecular architecture and interesting biological activity made these compounds attractive synthetic targets.
