Abstract

Artificial influence: We describe a semi-artificial adenosylpeptide B(12) that behaves as a cofactor in B(12)-dependent enzymatic reactions and demonstrate that the peptide backbone influences its chemical properties and modulates its bioactivity in vitro and in vivo. Inhibition of the growth of L. delbrueckii is demonstrated, thus providing a potentially powerful approach for the development of antibacterial and antiproliferative compounds.<br /> (Copyright © 2012 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
