Diverse Secondary Metabolites from the Marine-Derived Fungus Dichotomomyces cejpii F31-1

چکیده
By adding l-tryptophan and l-phenylalanine to GPY medium, twenty-eight compounds, including amides, polyketides, a sesquiterpenoid, a diterpenoid, a meroterpenoid, diketopiperazines, β-carbolines, fumiquinazolines, and indole alkaloids, were discovered from the marine-derived fungus Dichotomomyces cejpii F31-1, demonstrating the tremendous biosynthetic potential of this fungal strain. Among these compounds, four amides dichotomocejs A-D (1-4), one polyketide dichocetide A (5), and two diketopiperazines dichocerazines A-B (15 and 16) are new. The structures of these new compounds were determined by interpreting detailed spectroscopic data as well as calculating optical rotation values and ECD spectra. Obviously, Dichotomomyces cejpii can effectively use an amino acid-directed strategy to enhance the production of nitrogen-containing compounds. Dichotomocej A (1) displayed moderate cytotoxicity against the human rhabdomyosarcoma cell line RD with an IC50 value of 39.1 µM, and pityriacitrin (22) showed moderate cytotoxicity against the human colon carcinoma cell line HCT116 with an IC50 value of 35.1 µM.

The Ascomycota Dichotomomyces cejpii was isolated from the marine sponge Callyspongia cf. C. flammea. A new gliotoxin derivative, 6-acetylmonodethiogliotoxin (1) was obtained from fungal extracts. Compounds 2 and 3, methylthio-gliotoxin derivatives were formerly only known as semi-synthetic compounds and are here described as natural products. Additionally the polyketide heveadride (4) was isol...

Xanthocillin X monomethyl ether, known as an antiviral antibiotic, was isolated as a potent inhibitor of Dichotomomyces cejpii. The compound inhibited prostaglandin synthesis from 14C-arachidonic acid in rabbit kidney microsomes by 50% at a concentration of 0.2 microM, while prostaglandin synthesis by microsomes of ram seminal vesicle was inhibited by 50% at 20 microM. The inhibition of xanthoc...
