Abstract: A series of greatly simplified microcystin analogues comprised only of Adda (the beta-amino acid common to the microcystins, nodularins, and motuporin,) and a single additional amino acid residue was synthesized and screened for inhibition of the protein phosphatases 1 and 2A. Several of the analogues were shown to be mid-nanomolar inhibitors of the enzymes.
