    ..These findings can be a basis for chemotaxonomy. It is also possible that the biological function of stenusine, e.g., as antibiotic or fungicide, varies with changing stereoisomer composition...

    Department of Animal Ecology II, University of Bayreuth, 95440 Bayreuth, Germany
    Naturwissenschaften 95:751-5. 2008
    ..Stenusine not only allows for an extraordinary method of locomotion on water surfaces, it also protects the Steninae from being infested with microorganisms...

    J Nat Prod 71:743-5. 2008
    ..bimaculatus beetles with deuterium-labeled amino acids and using GC/MS analysis showed that L-lysine forms the piperidine ring of the stenusine molecule. The side chain originates from L-isoleucine and the N-ethyl group from acetate...
