Subject Bioactive compounds
 
Description The marine flora and fauna remain largely unexplored. Approximately 71% of the
molecular entities listed in the Dictionary of Marine Natural Products have novel molecular
structures compared to ~40% of those in the Dictionary of Natural Products. In NCI preclinical
cytotoxicity screen, marine organisms show higher incidence of anti-tumor potential: 1%
vs. 0.1% for terrestrial organisms. Number of new marine compounds reported each year is
increasing >1000 compounds.
