2 ! Isolation of the molecules A bit of background - Takushi Kaneko's group at Pfizer originally reported the structure determined via M. - Derived from an unidentified fungus that afflicts the Texas juniper tree. An afflicted twig C 1, CP-,917 C, CP-63,114 - nly small amounts were obtainable using fermentation: 1 L broth produced 31 mg of CP-,917 and 18 mg of CP-63,114 that were isolated by reverse PLC. - Characterization was achieved using M and mass spectrometry.! Therapeutic potential - Molecules found to inhibit as farnesyl transferase: 1 IC0 = 6 µm, IC0 0 µm Importance: Farnesylation of ras protein induces membrane localization that causes cell growth. Farnesylated Protein S Protein - Inhibit squalene synthase: 1 IC0 = 43 µm, IC0 = 160 µm Importance: Disrupts cholestorol biosynthesis starting from farnesyl pyrophosphate. Dabrah, T.

32 Conclusions! These complex molecules have led to clever and creative methods for overcoming difficult problems.! Persistence is the key success.! Sigmatropic rearrangements provide the most powerful and efficient means of entry into phomoidride systems by generating the carbocycle and alkene in essentially one step.! A good example that model systems, although useful, may not always be a good metric for actual system.
