Nectriatide 1a, a naturally occurring cyclic tetrapeptide, has been reported to a potentiator of amphotericin B (AmB) activity. In order to elucidate its structure-activity relationships, we synthesized nectriatide derivatives with different amino acids in solution-phase synthesis and evaluated AmB-potentiating activity against Candida albicans. Among them, C-and N-terminal protected linear peptides were found to show the most potent AmB-potentiating activity.
