High impact information on Palau

  • A specimen of the ascidian Botrylloides tyreum from Palau contained the known metabolites botryllamides A (5) and C (7) together with four new tyrosine derivatives, botryllamides E-H (1-4), the structures of which were elucidated by interpretation of spectroscopic data [1].
  • The potent antitumor agent dolastatin 10 (1) was originally isolated from the sea hare Dolabella auricularia, and we now report its isolation from the marine cyanobacterium Symploca sp. VP642 from Palau [2].
  • The Palau AHEC has evolved into ajoint activity of JABSOM, the University of Auckland Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (UAFMHS), the School of Public Health & Primary Care--Fiji School of Medicine, and Palau Community College to provide Diploma-level training in Family Practice and Community Health for Micronesian physicians [3].
  • In 1997 the courses were extended to include Palau, Yap, Chuuk, Pohnpei, Kosrae, and the Marshall islands [4].
  • Luffolide (4) is a minor metabolite of the sponge Luffariella sp. from Palau [5].
 

Associations of Palau with chemical compounds

  • The results obtained, taken together with those previously found (Subirana, J.A., Cozcolluela, C., Palau, J. and Unzeta, M. (1973) biochim. Biophys. Acta 317, 364--379), show that in all the molluscs studied one or more arginine-rich components are present [6].
