Plitidepsin is a cyclic depsipeptide of marine origin derived from the tunicate Aplidium albicans that exerts anticancer activity by inhibiting protein synthesis through binding to eukaryotic elongation factor 1A2 (eEF1A2), disrupting the elongation phase of translation. It has demonstrated activity in multiple myeloma, T-cell lymphoma, and leukemia, and has also shown antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2.
