  • Title: Homarine, a common metabolite in edible Mediterranean molluscs: occurrence, spectral data and revision of a related structure.
    Author: Polychronopoulos P, Magiatis P, Skaltsounis AL, Tillequin F, Vardala-Theodorou E, Tsarbopoulos A.
    Journal: Nat Prod Lett; 2001; 15(6):411-8. PubMed ID: 11838979.
    Abstract:
    Homarine was isolated from nine edible species of marine molluscs belonging to classes Gastropoda, Bivalvia, and Cephalopoda. A thorough chromatographic, NMR and MS study provided evidence that homarine is a common and abundant metabolite of all these species. This study casts doubt on a previous assertion that 1,1'-dimethyl-[2,2']-bipyridinium is a metabolite of the Bivalve Callista chione.
