Calyculin: Nature's way of making the sponge-derived cytotoxin

The Natures of Nonconfigurationality

Third Natures? Reconstituting Space through Place- making Strategies for Sustainability

The recent rises in food prices represent the ‘tip of the iceberg’ and a ‘canary in the mine’ moment for world agriculture. They are underlain by a continuing race to the bottom and by speculative processes whereby systems of resource production and exploitation are continuing to rely upon ‘infinite supply’ assumptions and narrow technological solutions to world hunger.

Swinholide J, a Potent Cytotoxin from the Marine Sponge Theonella swinhoei

In our ongoing search for new pharmacologically active leads from Solomon organisms, we have examined the sponge Theonella swinhoei. Herein we report the isolation and structure elucidation of swinholide A (1) and one new macrolide, swinholide J (2). Swinholide J is an unprecedented asymmetric 44-membered dilactone with an epoxide functionality in half of the molecule. The structural determinat...
