Abstract

The absolute stereochemistry of melleumin A (1) and B (2), novel peptide compounds isolated from the myxomycete Physarum melleum, was determined by synthesis of their segments and by a modified Mosher's method. Total synthesis of melleumin B (2) was achieved by a stereoselective method, which provided further evidence for all the absolute stereochemistries of melleumin B (2). The Wnt signal inhibitory activities of 2 and its 10R-epimer 19 were evaluated. Compound 19 showed moderate inhibition of Wnt signal transcription, which suggests that melleumin analogues might be useful as Wnt signal inhibitors.
