Abstract

An Australian marine tunicate-derived fungus, Talaromyces sp. CMB-TU011 was subjected to a program of analytical microbioreactor (MATRIX) cultivations, supported by UHPLC-QTOF profiling, to reveal conditions for producing a new class of extensively N-methylated 11-12 residue linear peptides, talaropeptides A-D (2-5). The structures for 2-5, inclusive of absolute configurations, were determined by a combination of detailed spectroscopic and chemical (e.g., C3 and C18 Marfey's) analyses. We report on the biological properties of 2-5, including plasma stability, as well as antibacterial, antifungal and cell cytotoxicity. The talaropeptide mega non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) is described, as second only in size to that for the fungus-derived immunosuppressant cyclosporine (an 11-residue extensively N-methylated cyclic peptide).

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 21 September 2018.
All research outputs
#13,389,470
of 23,102,082 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Chemistry
#784
of 6,040 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#165,899
of 335,392 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Chemistry
#39
of 206 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,102,082 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,040 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.0. This one has done well, scoring higher than 86% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 335,392 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 49th percentile – i.e., 49% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 206 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 80% of its contemporaries.
