NMR Analysis and Assignment of a Biosynthesis Gene Cluster for Trichokonins VI and VIII, Antiplasmodial Large Peptaibols Produced by a Trichoderma sp. Fungus

Description: Article provides the first comprehensive structural characterization of the peptaibols trichokonins VI and VIII from Trichoderma sp. L2-2, combining NMR, electronic circular dichroism, HRMS/MS, and genome sequencing analyses. The study also identifies a corresponding peptaibol biosynthesis gene cluster and demonstrates that both compounds exhibit potent antiplasmodial activity against Plasmodium falciparum at submicromolar concentrations.
