A new depsidone derivative from mangrove sediment derived fungus
A new depsidone derivative botryorhodine I (1), along with eight known compounds (2-9) were obtained from solid rice cultures of the fungal strain, Lasiodiplodia theobromae M4.2-2 isolated from a mangrove sediment sample. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated on the basis of 1 D and 2 D NMR analysis as well as by HRESIMS. All compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic potential against the mouse lymphoma cell line L5178Y as well as for their antibacterial activities against a panel of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. Compound 3 revealed potent cytotoxic activity with an IC50 of 7.3 µM whereas compound 7 showed selective anti-bacterial activity against …
Isolation and Molecular Docking of Cytotoxic Secondary Metabolites from Two Red Sea Sponges of the Genus Diacarnus
Lactones from the Sponge-Derived Fungus Talaromyces rugulosus.
The marine-derived fungus Talaromyces rugulosus isolated from the Mediterranean sponge Axinella cannabina and cultured on solid rice medium yielded seventeen lactone derivatives including five butenolides (1–5), seven (3S)-resorcylide derivatives (6–12), two butenolide-resorcylide dimers (13 and 14), and three dihydroisocoumarins (15–17). Among them, fourteen compounds (1–3, 6–16) are new natural products. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) spectroscopy as well as by ESI-HRMS (ElectroSpray Ionization-High Resolution Mass Spectrometry). TDDFT-ECD (Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory-Electronic Circular Dichroism) calcul…
Cytotoxic secondary metabolites from the endophytic fungus Aspergillus versicolor KU258497
Abstract Two new isocoumarin dimers (1 and 2) and one new dihydroquinolone derivative (3) were isolated from Aspergillus versicolor, an endophyte derived from leaves of the Egyptian water hyacinth Eichhornia crassipes (Pontederiaceae), together with ten other known metabolites. Chemical structures of the isolated metabolites were determined based on HRESIMS, extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy. The relative and absolute configurations of the new natural products were established by ROESY and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectroscopy, respectively. The axial chirality of the isocoumarin 7,7′-homodimers (1 and 2) was deduced by TDDFT-ECD calculations. All isolated compounds were asses…

Induction of new metabolites from sponge-associated fungus Aspergillus carneus by OSMAC approach.
Abstract A comparative study on the metabolic profile of the sponge-associated fungus Aspergillus carneus using the OSMAC approach was conducted. The fungal strain was fermented on three different media including solid rice medium with or without sea salt and modified Czapek medium. Three new natural products, isopropylchaetominine (1), isoterrelumamide A (2) and 5′-epi-averufanin (3), together with fourteen known compounds (4–17) were isolated. The structures of the new compounds were established by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic analysis as well as by HRESIMS. Compound 2 was only found when the fungus was cultivated on modified Czapek medium, whereas compounds 4, 7, 11, 12, and 14 were only …
