Apratoxin A (1), a potent cytotoxin with a novel skeleton, has been isolated from the marine cyanobacterium Lyngbya majuscula Harvey ex Gomont; however, it was only marginally active in vivo against a colon tumor and ineffective against a mammary tumor.

The isolation of 1 from L. majuscula once more supports the proposal that many compounds originally isolated from the sea hare Dolabella auricularia are of cyanobacterial origin and was shown to be a potent disrupter of the cellular microfilament network.

Two new cyclodepsipeptides have been isolated from a population of the marine cyanobacterium Lyngbya majuscula collected at Piti Bomb Holes, Guam and exhibit weak cytotoxicity against LoVo cancer cells, but possess moderate antimycobacterial activity and stimulate elastase activity.

It is shown that a prepeptide undergoes post‐translational modification through cross‐linking by ester and amide bond formation by the RimK homologues MvdD and MvdC, respectively and suggests the potential for widespread occurrence of microviridin‐like compounds in a broad range of bacteria.
