Secondary metabolites from marine microorganisms.
After 40 years of intensive research, chemistry of marine natural products has become a mature field. Since 1995, there are signals of decreased interest in the search of new metabolites from traditional sources such as macroalgae and octocorals, and the number of annual reports on marine sponges stabilized. On the contrary, metabolites from microorganisms is a rapidly growing field, due, at le...
متن کاملRecent heterocyclic compounds from marine invertebrates: Structure and synthesis
A large variety of unique heterocyclic natural marine products, without terrestrial counterparts, have been isolated from marine invertebrates, mainly sponges, ascidians, and soft corals. Many of these compounds display interesting biological activity. In this review, we report our recent studies on nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds (“alkaloids”), as well as some containing sulfur and ...
متن کاملCytotoxic Natural Products from Marine Sponge-Derived Microorganisms
A growing body of evidence indicates that marine sponge-derived microbes possess the potential ability to make prolific natural products with therapeutic effects. This review for the first time provides a comprehensive overview of new cytotoxic agents from these marine microbes over the last 62 years from 1955 to 2016, which are assorted into seven types: terpenes, alkaloids, peptides, aromatic...
متن کامل1 An Update on the Biomedical Prospects of Marine-derived Small Molecules with Fascinating Atom and Stereochemical Diversity
In this chapter we discuss a selection of structurally diverse marine-derived small molecules (MDSMs) with potent and/or specific bioactivity and analyze their biomedical applications. The compounds included have been isolated either from marine macroorganisms, including sponges, ascidians (tunicates), bryozoans, and molluscs, or from microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi. Our inquiry begi...
متن کاملMini-Review: Antifouling Natural Products from Marine Microorganisms and Their Synthetic Analogs
Biofouling causes huge economic loss and generates serious ecological issues worldwide. Marine coatings incorporated with antifouling (AF) compounds are the most common practices to prevent biofouling. With a ban of organotins and an increase in the restrictions regarding the use of other AF alternatives, exploring effective and environmentally friendly AF compounds has become an urgent demand ...
