    Abstract

    The marine flora and fauna remain largely unexplored. Approximately 71% of the molecular entities listed in the Dictionary of Marine Natural Products have novel molecular structures compared to ~40% of those in the Dictionary of Natural Products. In NCI preclinical cytotoxicity screen, marine organisms show higher incidence of anti-tumor potential: 1% vs. 0.1% for terrestrial organisms. Number of new marine compounds reported each year is increasing >1000 compounds.
