Amaryllidaceae Alkaloids: Comparison
Please note this is a comparison between Version 2 by Karina Chen and Version 1 by Isabel Desgagne-Penix.

Alkaloids are an important group of specialized nitrogen metabolites with a wide range of biochemical and pharmacological effects. Since the first publication on lycorine in 1877, more than 650 alkaloids have been extracted from Amaryllidaceae bulbous plants and clustered together as the Amaryllidaceae alkaloids (AAs) family. 

  • Amaryllidaceae alkaloids
  • specialized metabolism
  • biosynthesis
  • antitumor
  • anti-cholinesterase
  • antiviral
  • antiparasitic
