Abstract
A marine-derived Pleosporales fungus, Uzbekistanica storfjordensis, was isolated from driftwood and described as a new species. The fungus was cultivated in liquid media and a molecular networking-driven approach was used to identify potential new secondary metabolites. The targeted compounds were isolated using preparative HPLC-MS, and through extensive spectroscopic analysis, eight new ophiobolin-type sesterterpenes, bipolarolides H-O (1-8), were identified. The absolute configurations of the compounds were determined by ECD assessment. Bipolarolide L (5), M (6), and O (8) exhibited inhibitory activity against Streptococcus agalactiae with MIC values of 86, 66, and 64 μM, respectively.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Natural Products invites and publishes papers that make substantial and scholarly contributions to the area of natural products research. Contributions may relate to the chemistry and/or biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds or the biology of living systems from which they are obtained.
Specifically, there may be articles that describe secondary metabolites of microorganisms, including antibiotics and mycotoxins; physiologically active compounds from terrestrial and marine plants and animals; biochemical studies, including biosynthesis and microbiological transformations; fermentation and plant tissue culture; the isolation, structure elucidation, and chemical synthesis of novel compounds from nature; and the pharmacology of compounds of natural origin.
When new compounds are reported, manuscripts describing their biological activity are much preferred.
