title: Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of biotin-labeled (-)-ternatin, a potent fat-accumulation inhibitor against 3T3-L1 adipocytes.
abstract: The design, synthesis, and biological activity of biotin-labeled (-)-ternatin are reported. Chemical modification, that is, biotinylation, was conducted using Click chemistry at the 6-position (NMe-D-ProGly moiety), which was a plausible location selected on the basis of our SAR studies. The compound displayed sufficient fat-accumulation inhibitory effect against 3T3-L1 adipocytes for further bio-organic studies.
