Abstract

Mass culture of an axenic clone ofMicrocystis viridis (NIES-102) was carried out, and three toxins were isolated from the cell. Structure elucidation of one of the toxins, designated cyanoviridin RR (microcystin RR), was performed mainly by means of modern NMR techniques. Cyanoviridin RR was a cyclic heptapeptide consisting of seven amino acids, Adda, l-arginine, erthro-β-methyl-aspartic acid, l-arginine, d-alanine, N-methyldehydroalanine, and d-glutamic acid. Structurally, this toxin belongs to the cyanoginosins already isolated fromM. aeruginosa.
