Unique ID: D008235
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D008235
Annotation: /antag permitted but consider also ANTITOXINS; coordinate with source only if particularly discussed
Scope Note: Toxins isolated from any species of the genus LYNGBYA or similar chemicals from other sources, including mollusks and micro-organisms. These have been found to be potent tumor promoters. They are biosynthesized from TRYPTOPHAN; VALINE; and METHIONINE nonribosomally (PEPTIDE BIOSYNTHESIS, NUCLEIC ACID-INDEPENDENT).
Entry Term(s): Lyngbya Toxin; Lyngbyatoxin; Lyngbyatoxins
