Azumamides A-E: Isolation, Synthesis, Biological Activity, and Structure-Activity Relationship.

ABSTRACT: Cyclic peptides are one of the important chemical groups in the HDAC inhibitor family. Following the success of romidepsin in the clinic, naturally occurring cyclic peptides with a hydrophilic moiety have been intensively studied to test their function as HDAC inhibitors. Azumamides A-E, isolated from Mycale izuensis, are one of the powerful HDAC inhibitor classes. Structurally, azumamides A-E consist of three D-α-amino acids and unnatural β-amino acids such as 3-amino-2-methyl-5-nonenedioic acid-9-amide (Amnna) and 3-amino-2-methyl-5-nonenoic-1,9-diacid (Amnda). Moreover, azumamides have a retro-arrangement peptide backbone, unlike other naturally occurring cyclopeptide HDAC inhibitors, owing to the D-configuration of all residues. This review summarizes the currently
