Polyketides from the marine-derived fungus Aspergillus falconensis: In silico and in vitro cytotoxicity studies.
2020
Abstract Fermentation of the marine-derived fungus Aspergillus falconensis, isolated from sediment collected from the Red Sea, Egypt on solid rice medium containing 3.5% NaCl yielded a new dibenzoxepin derivative (1) and a new natural isocoumarin (2) along with six known compounds (3–8). Changes in the metabolic profile of the fungus were induced by replacing NaCl with 3.5% (NH4)2SO4 that resulted in the accumulation of three further known compounds (9–11), which were not detected when the fungus was cultivated in the presence of NaCl. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by HRESIMS and 1D/2D NMR as well as by comparison with the literature. Molecular docking was conducted fo…
Didymellanosine, a new decahydrofluorene analogue, and ascolactone C from Didymella sp. IEA-3B.1, an endophyte of Terminalia catappa
2020
Didymellanosine (1), the first analogue of the decahydrofluorene-class of natural products bearing a 13-membered macrocyclic alkaloid conjugated with adenosine, and a new benzolactone derivative, ascolactone C (4) along with eight known compounds (2, 3, 5–10), were isolated from a solid rice fermentation of the endophytic fungus Didymella sp. IEA-3B.1 derived from the host plant Terminalia catappa. In addition, ascochitamine (11) was obtained when (NH4)2SO4 was added to rice medium and is reported here for the first time as a natural product. Didymellanosine (1) displayed strong activity against the murine lymphoma cell line L5178Y, Burkitt's lymphoma B cells (Ramos) and adult lymphoblastic…
