Journal ArticleDOI
Biomimetic Surface Modifications Based on the Cyanobacterial Iron Chelator Anachelin
Stefan Zürcher,David Wäckerlin,Yann Bethuel,Barbora Malisova,Marcus Textor,Samuele Tosatti,Karl Gademann +6 more
TL;DR: The resulting poly(ethylene glycol) conjugate forms stable adlayers on TiO2 as has been shown by variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomimetic total synthesis and antimicrobial evaluation of anachelin H.
TL;DR: Anachelin H was evaluated against a panel of eleven bacterial and fungal pathogens, and moderate antibiotic activity against Moraxella catarrhalis was found, and it was demonstrated that the enzyme tyrosinase is activated by the product during this reaction, the anachelin chromophore can serve as a tyosinase activator.
Journal ArticleDOI
Total Synthesis of Anachelin H
Karl Gademann,Yann Bethuel +1 more
TL;DR: The first total synthesis of anachelin H is reported, which was found to be identical to a sample of the natural product, thus confirming the configuration by total synthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
A biomimetic route to the peptide alkaloid anachelin.
Karl Gademann,Yann Bethuel +1 more
TL;DR: Experiments with a model substrate indicate that it is likely that a catechol oxidase-type enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of the anachelin chromophore.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and evaluation of the bis-nor-anachelin chromophore as potential cyanobacterial ligand.
Yann Bethuel,Karl Gademann +1 more
TL;DR: It was found that the bis-nor-anachelin chromophore is readily oxidized in solution in the presence of air, with a clear dependence of the rate of oxidation on the pH value and the permanent quaternary ammonium group in anachelin renders the alkaloid chromophores much more stable against oxidation and thus results in its use as ligand for Fe(III).
