The unexpected isolation of CTP-431, a novel thiopyrone from the sponge Cacospongia mycofijiensis.

چکیده
A reinvestigation of a Fijian collection of Cacospongia mycofijiensis has yielded the known mycothiazole and a novel heterocyclic, CTP-431 (1). Its structure including absolute configuration as 8R,9R,10S,13S was established using NMR data, calculated DFT (13)C chemical shifts and results from X-ray crystallography. It is possible that the tricyclic skeleton of CTP-431 (1) is biosynthetically related to the macrolide latrunculin A, however the thiopyrone moiety of 1 has no previous precedent in natural products chemistry.

The aignopsanes, a new class of sesquiterpenes from selected chemotypes of the sponge Cacospongia mycofijiensis.
A survey of individual specimens of northern Papua New Guinea derived Cacospongia mycofijiensis has yielded novel sesquiterpenes, aignopsanoic acid A (1), methyl aignopsanoate A (2), and isoaignopsanoic acid A (3). The structures and absolute configurations of 1-3 were established using NMR data, X-ray crystallography results, and an analysis of CD properties. Two of these metabolites, 1 and 2,...
متن کاملSponge-derived fijianolide polyketide class: further evaluation of their structural and cytotoxicity properties.
The sponge-derived polyketide macrolides fijianolides A (1) and B (2), isolaulimalide and laulimalide, have taxol-like microtubule-stabilizing activity, and the latter exhibits potent cytotoxicity. Insight on the biogeographical and phenotypic variations of Cacospongia mycofijiensis is presented that will enable a future study of the biosynthetic pathway that produces the fijianolides. In addit...
متن کاملMicrotubule-Stabilizing Drugs from Marine Sponges: Focus on Peloruside A and Zampanolide
Marine sponges are an excellent source of bioactive secondary metabolites with potential therapeutic value in the treatment of diseases. One group of compounds of particular interest is the microtubule-stabilizing agents, the most well-known compound of this group being paclitaxel (Taxol), an anti-cancer compound isolated from the bark and leaves of the Pacific yew tree. This review focuses on ...
متن کاملIsolation of ASR7 Actinomycete Isolated from S12 Demospongia Marine Sponge and Study of Its Antibacterial Activity
Background and Aims: Marine Actinomycetes are gram-positive bacteria that sometimes are free, saprophytic or plant and animal-associated, including marine sponges. More than 75% of antibiotics and antimicrobial compounds are produced by actinomycetes. In recent years, due to the need for new drugs, marine microorganisms have been considered as new sources of potential production of significant ...
متن کاملMicrotubule-stabilizing agents based on designed laulimalide analogues.
Laulimalide is a potent, structurally unique microtubule-stabilizing agent originally isolated from the marine sponge Cacospongia mycofijiensis. Laulimalide exhibits an activity profile different from other microtubule-binding agents, notably including effectiveness against paclitaxel-resistant cells, but it is intrinsically unstable. Five analogues of laulimalide were designed to exhibit enhan...
