Article Abstract
Two new isomeric modified tripeptides, aspergillamides C and D (compounds 1 and 2), together with fifteen known compounds (compounds 3-17), were obtained from the marine sponge-derived fungus Aspergillus terreus SCSIO 41008. The structures of the new compounds, including absolute configurations, were determined by extensive analyses of spectroscopic data (NMR, MS, UV, and IR) and comparisons between the calculated and experimental electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra. Butyrolactone I (compound 11) exhibited strong inhibitory effects against Mycobacterium tuberculosis protein tyrosine phosphatase B (MptpB) with the IC being 5.11 ± 0.53 μmol·L, and acted as a noncompetitive inhibitor based on kinetic analysis.

Ovarian cancer (OC) often metastasizes to the peritoneal cavity, causing late-stage diagnosis with high mortality. Aaptamine and isoaaptamine, sponge-derived isomeric alkaloids, were investigated for the anti-tumor potential of isoaaptamine in OC cells. Isoaaptamine outperforms aaptamine, significantly reducing the viability of PA-1 and SKOV-3 cells with half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC) values of ∼5 μM and 15 μM, respectively.

Over the past 70 years, marine biodiversity has been recognised as a rich source of unique chemical compounds with wide-ranging applications in the blue bioeconomy. Among marine organisms, sponges have historically been a key focus of marine biodiscovery due to their high potential for yielding novel compounds. More recently, attention has also turned to their associated microbiota-including bacteria, fungi, and cyanobacteria-which have emerged as more sustainable sources of bioactive metabolites.

Combining biosynthetic gene cluster analysis with the OSMAC strategy, fractionation of the fermentation extract of from the sponge sp. led to the isolation of four novel cytochalasins, colachalasins J-M (-), a novel cyclic pentapeptide, avellanin P (), together with five known compounds (-). The structures of - were elucidated using spectroscopic data, single crystal X-ray diffraction, and Marfey's analysis.

Five previously undescribed peptaibiotics, including one 7-mer lipopeptaibol named lipotrichaibol A (), and four 11-mer peptaibiotics named trichoderpeptides A-D (-) were isolated from the rice culture medium of the sponge-derived fungus sp. GXIMD 01001. Their structures and absolute configurations were unambiguously established by extensive spectroscopic data analysis and advanced Marfey's method.

We have used an efficient bioinspired methodology to synthesize, for the first time, the recently reported antibacterial brominated pyridoacridine alkaloids 2-bromodeoxyamphimedine and 3-bromodeoxyamphimedine. The synthetic route started with the synthesis of 5-bromo and 6-bromokynuramine, the latter being a sponge-derived marine natural product. Oxidative addition of the brominated kynuramine analogues, with Boc-dopamine, afforded the anticipated natural products 2- and 3-bromostyelsamine D.
