A New Acetylenic Compound and Other Bioactive Metabolites from a Shark Gill-derived Penicillium Strain
نویسندگان
چکیده
Nine chiral compounds (1−9) were isolated from the static fermentation culture of a shark gillderived fungus Penicillium polonicum AP2T1. These compounds include a new acetylenic aromatic ether (1, (-)WA), four alkaloids (aurantiomide C (2), fructigenine A (3), cyclopenin (4) and cyclopenol (5)) and four oxygenated compounds ((R)-penipratynolene (6), (3S,4S)-3,4-dihydro-3,4,8-trihydroxyl-naphthalenone (7), verrucosidin (8) and norverrucosidin (9)). Their structures were elucidated by MS, NMR, optical rotation and circular dichroism (CD). In antimicrobial tests, compounds 1–4, 6 and 8–9 showed weak antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, and/or Escherichia coli. Compounds 3, 8 and 9 also exhibited moderate toxicity against Artemia salina larva, and showed cytotoxicity against human colon cancer cell line HCT116.

متن کاملIsolation and identification of bioactive compound producing Rhodococcus spp. isolated from soil samples
The genus Rhodococcus is gram positive bacterium which was classified into the family of Nocardiaceae. The organism can be isolates from different sources, with capability to degrade diverse types of pollutant. Nowadays, scientists reported a few secondary metabolites which are produced by Rhodococci. Hence, the present study tried to isolate Rhodococci from different soil samples with the cap...
متن کاملActivation of the Silent Secondary Metabolite Production by Introducing Neomycin-Resistance in a Marine-Derived Penicillium purpurogenum G59
Introduction of neomycin-resistance into a marine-derived, wild-type Penicillium purpurogenum G59 resulted in activation of silent biosynthetic pathways for the secondary metabolite production. Upon treatment of G59 spores with neomycin and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), a total of 56 mutants were obtained by single colony isolation. The acquired resistance of mutants to neomycin was testified by t...
متن کاملBioactive metabolites produced by Penicillium sp. 1 and sp. 2, two endophytes associated with Alibertia macrophylla (Rubiaceae).
In the course of our continuous search for bioactive metabolites from endophytic fungi living in plants from the Brazilian flora, leaves of Alibertia macrophylla (Rubiaceae) were submitted to isolation of endophytes, and two species of Penicillium were isolated. The acetonitrile fraction obtained in corn from a culture of Penicillium sp. 1 afforded orcinol (1). On the other hand, Penicillium sp...
متن کاملIdentification of biological secondary metabolites in three Penicillium species, P. goditanum, P. moldavicum, and P. corylophilum
Microorganisms are important components of soil. Some soil filamentous fungi such asPenicilium produce many bioactive small molecules, or secondary metabolites, that range frombeneficial bioactive compounds to harmful toxins. In this study, the metabolites of threepenicillium species (P. goditanum, P. moldavicum and P. corylophilum) were extracted byadding ethyl acetate to liquid cultures. The ...
