Bilaid B
Application Notes
Bilaid B (FvVy-OH) is a hydroxylated analogue of a family of tetrapeptides with an unusual alternating LDLD chirality isolated from an Australian estuarine isolate of Penicillium sp. MST-MF667. Bilaid B exhibited very weak μ-opioid agonist and the class formed the foundation for the design of more potent analogues, bilorphin and bilactorphin. The bioassay profile of bilaid B has not been extensively investigated.
