New Azaphilones, Seco-Chaetomugilins A and D, Produced by a Marine-Fish-Derived Chaetomium globosum
نویسندگان
چکیده
Seco-chaetomugilins A and D were isolated from a strain of Chaetomium globosum that was originally isolated from the marine fish Mugil cephalus, and their absolute stereostructures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic analyses, including 1D and 2D NMR techniques, along with the chemical transformation from known chaetomugilins A and D. Seco-chaetomugilin D exhibited growth inhibitory activity against cultured P388, HL-60, L1210, and KB cells.

Potentially harmful secondary metabolites produced by indoor Chaetomium species on artificially and naturally contaminated building materials.
The presence of the fungal genus Chaetomium and its secondary metabolites in indoor environments is suspected to have a negative impact on human health and well-being. About 200 metabolites have been currently described from Chaetomium spp., but only the bioactive compound group, chaetoglobosins, have been screened for and thus detected in buildings. In this study, we used a liquid chromatograp...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of Chaetomium species using URP-PCR
Chaetomium spp. are common colonizers of soil and cellulose-containing substrates. Seventeen isolates of Chaetomium spp., which included 15 isolates of C. globosum and one each of C. reflexum and C. perlucidum, were genetically characterized with universal rice primers (URP primers derived from DNA repeat sequences in the rice genome) using polymerase chain reaction (URP-PCR). Out of the 12 URP...
متن کاملCytoglobosins H and I, New Antiproliferative Cytochalasans from Deep-Sea-Derived Fungus Chaetomium globosum
Cytoglobosins H (1) and I (2), together with seven known cytochalasan alkaloids (3-9), were isolated from the deep-sea-derived fungus Chaetomium globosum. The structures of new compounds 1 and 2 were elucidated by extensive 1D and 2D NMR and mass spectroscopic data. All the compounds were evaluated for their antiproliferative activities against MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells, LNCaP human ...
متن کاملAdaptation of marine derived fungi , Chaetomium globosum ( NIOCC 36 ) , under alkaline stress using antioxidant properties
The fungi are an exceptionally useful model in elucidating the cell functions under extreme conditions (temperature, salinity, pH values) and mechanisms underlying adaptation to those extreme environmental conditions. Here, Chaetomium globosum was examined for its adaptation mechanism under alkaline stress using antioxidant properties. The aqueous extracts of C. globosum exhibited different lev...
متن کاملPhylogenetic reassessment of the Chaetomium globosum species complex
Chaetomium globosum, the type species of the genus, is ubiquitous, occurring on a wide variety of substrates, in air and in marine environments. This species is recognised as a cellulolytic and/or endophytic fungus. It is also known as a source of secondary metabolites with various biological activities, having great potential in the agricultural, medicinal and industrial fields. On the negativ...
