An Antiphage Agent Isolated from Aspergillus Sp.

Angucyclinones from an Indonesian Streptomyces sp.

Six new angucyclinone polyketides named panglimycins A-F were isolated together with the three known metabolites (+)-fujianmycin A, (+)-ochromycinone, and emycin C from the bioassay-guided fractionation of the extract of the Indonesian Streptomyces strain ICBB8230. The new compounds are highly oxygenated angucyclinones that appear to be biosynthetically derived from ochromycinone or fujianmycin...

Enacting aporia: Roger Caillois' game typology as formalist methodology

This game analysis experimentally transposes Louis Hjelmslev's linguistic methodology, for logically deducing semiotic schema from a given text, to the analysis of games. Roger Caillois' fourfold model of game type rubrics is therefore reconceptualized, as a logically coherent analytic framework, from which an analysis might proceed indefinitely. Such analysis was practiced on a Dutch translati...

Secondary metabolites and biological activities of Talaromyces sp. LGT-2, an endophytic fungus from Tripterygium wilfordii

Abstract In the present study, eleven compounds (1-11) including nine alkaloids (1-9), one triterpenoid saponin (10) and one formamide (11) were isolated from Talaromyces sp. LGT-2, an endophytic fungus from Tripterygium wilfordi. Their structures were determined based on NMR and ESI-MS spectral data, as well as comparing with previous literature data. This is the first report of the isolation ...
