ChEBI Name esculeoside A
ChEBI ID CHEBI:65866
Definition A steroid saponin that is spirosolane-3,23,27-triol in which the hydroxy group at position 23 is acetylated and the hydroxy groups at positions 3 and 27 are glycosylated by lycotetraosyl and a β-D-glucopyranosyl moieties respectively. Isolated from the fruits of Lycopersicon esculentum, it exhibits cytotoxic activity.

Related Structures
esculeoside A is a Structural Derivative of
sapogenin
Definition : Any organic polycyclic compound that is the aglycon moiety of a saponin; sapogenins may be steroids or triterpenoids.
 carbohydrate
Definition : Any member of the class of organooxygen compounds that is a polyhydroxy-aldehyde or -ketone or a lactol resulting from their intramolecular condensation (monosaccharides); substances derived from these by reduction of the carbonyl group (alditols), by oxidation of one or more hydroxy groups to afford the corresponding aldehydes, ketones, or carboxylic acids, or by replacement of one or more hydroxy group(s) by a hydrogen atom; and polymeric products arising by intermolecular acetal formation between two or more such molecules (disaccharides, polysaccharides and oligosaccharides). Carbohydrates contain only carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms; prior to any oxidation or reduction, most have the empirical formula Cm(H2O)n. Compounds obtained from carbohydrates by substitution, etc., are known as carbohydrate derivatives and may contain other elements. Cyclitols are generally not regarded as carbohydrates.
