  • METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS THAT INCREASE PESTICIDAL ACTIVITY FOR FR901228
    Publication number: 20220183300
    Abstract: The present invention includes methods and compositions that produce greater pesticidal activity in FR901228 conjugates. FR901228 can be conjugated with one or more thiol containing molecules and produce a new conjugate that exhibits increase pesticidal activity than FR901228 alone.
