Abstract
The amino acid sequence of the peptide moiety of verticillin (I) - a phytotoxic metabolite of the causative agent of verticillium wilt of the cotton plant - has been determined. On the basis of the determination of the amino acid sequences of five short peptides isolated from the products of incomplete acid hydrolysis of oxidized desferriverticillin, the structure cyclo[L-glycyl-L-seryl-L-glycyl(L-δ-N-hydroxyornithyl)ε] has been established for the peptide moiety of (I).
