Pulicatins A−E, Neuroactive Thiazoline Metabolites from Cone Snail-Associated Bacteria
28 Oct 2010
Abstract excerpt
The cone snail Conus pulicarius from the Philippines provides a specific habitat for actinomycetes and other bacteria. A phenotypic screen using primary cultures of mouse dorsal root ganglion neurons revealed that one C. pulicarius associate, Streptomyces sp.
