| Abstract | Motuporin (1), a cyclic pentapeptide that is a potent protein phosphatase-1 inhibitor and cytotoxin, has been isolated from the marine sponge Theonella swinhoei collected in Papua New Guinea. The structure of motuporin was elucidated by spectroscopic analysis and chemical degradation. |
