Description

Homoyessotoxin is a potent marine toxin belonging to the yessotoxin group of polyether toxins, primarily found in certain species of marine dinoflagellates such as Protoceratium reticulatum and Lingulodinium polyedra. This toxin is structurally related to yessotoxin and is known for its lipophilicity and potential toxic effects on marine life and humans. Homoyessotoxin tends to accumulate in shellfish. Although it is less toxic compared to some other compounds within its group, the presence of homoyessotoxin in contaminated shellfish can still pose a risk to human health. Consumption of such contaminated shellfish may lead to gastrointestinal issues and other related symptoms. This toxin is a focus of marine toxicology and food safety research aimed at ensuring the safe consumption of shellfish.
