This 3-D image depicts the molecular structure of jaborosalactol 24—a naturally occurring steroid found in the Jaborosa parviflora plant—which was discovered by using residual dipolar couplings and powder X-ray diffraction. Researchers investigating the small molecule’s function have found that it may have potential as an anti-cancer agent.
CARNEGIE MELLON (US)—A new nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methodology has enabled a group of chemists to determine the correct chemical structure of a natural compound known as a withanolide, which has been shown to slow the growth of breast cancer cells. Continue…
