Phaseoloidin is a homogentisic acid glucoside isolated from *Nicotiana attenuata* trichomes. It plays a defensive role in the plant's resistance against lepidopteran herbivores by significantly reducing the growth of both specialist (*Manduca sexta*) and generalist (*Spodoptera littoralis*) larvae. In addition to its insect-deterrent properties, phaseoloidin also exhibits anti-complement activity, suggesting potential immunomodulatory applications.
