Activity
Hemolytic Activity No hemolysis information or data found in the reference(s) presented in this entry
Cytotoxicity No cytotoxicity information found in the reference(s) presented
Binding Target Viral integrase
Mechanism Mollamide E does not exhibit significant HIV inhibition activity in cytoprotective or integrase assays. Its mechanism of action remains uncharacterized but may involve steric or structural features that prevent integrase binding, unlike its analog Mollamide F
Structure Information
PDB ID None
Predicted Structure Download No predicted structure available
Linear/Cyclic Cyclic
N-terminal Modification Phenylalanine (Phe)
C-terminal Modification Thiazoline (Cys-derived residue)
Other Modification The cysteine residue forms a thiazoline ring, contributing to the rigidity and cyclic nature of the peptide.Attached to the threonine residue, this modification is a unique structural feature.Contains d-Phe and d-thiazoline, resulting from thermodynamic relaxation under constrained peptide geometry.X at position 1: D-Phenylalanine (D-Phe) → Mirror image of L-Phe, not commonly found in natural peptides, X at position 7: D-Cysteine in thiazoline ring → Modified residue, involved in heterocyclic st
