Asperterrestide A, a Cytotoxic Cyclic Tetrapeptide from the Marine-Derived Fungus Aspergillus terreus SCSGAF0162
摘要:
A new cytotoxic and antiviral cyclic tetrapeptide, asperterrestide A(1), a new alkaloid, terremide C (2), and a new aromatic butenolide, aspernolide E (A), together with 10 known compounds were isolated from the fermentation broth of the marine-derived fungus Aspergillus terreus SCSGAF0162:. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis, and the absolute configuration of 1 was determined by the Mosher ester technique, and analysis of the acid hydrolysates using a chiral, phase HPLC column. Compound 1 contains a rare 3-OH-N-CH3-Phe residue and showed cytotoxicity against U937 and MOLT4 human carcinoma cell lines and inhibitory effects on influenza virus strains H1N1 and H3N2.
