Tropical cytotoxin: A collection of LyngbyabouilloniifromPalmyra Atoll in the Central Pacific, a site several thousand kilometers distant from all previous collections of this chemically prolific species of cyanobacterium, was found to contain two new cancer cell cytotoxins of the apratoxin family.
The bioassay-guided fractionation of the Okinawan marine cyanobacterium Okeania sp. led to the isolation of the 26-membered cyclodepsipeptide odoamide (1). The gross structure of 1 was determined by 1D and 2D NMR analyses, whereas its absolute stereochemistry was determined using a variety of different methods, including synthesis and chemical degradation followed by chiral HPLC analysis. Notably,

Twonewcyclicpentapeptides, named versicotides A (1) and B (2), were obtained from a marine‐derived fungus strain ZLN‐60, identified as Aspergillusversicolor. Their structures were established on the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidence. Versicotides are newcyclicpentapeptides which contain an L‐alanine residue, two anthranilic acid (=2‐aminobenzoic acid) residues, and two N‐methyl‐L‐alanine

The cold waters of Antarctica are known to harbor a rich biodiversity. Our continuing interest in the chemical analysis of Antarctic invertebrates has resulted in the isolation of friomaramide (1), a new, highly modified hexapeptide, from the Antarctic sponge Inflatella coelosphaeroides. The structure of friomaramide was determined using spectroscopic methods and its configuration established by Marfeys method. Friomaramide, which bears the unusual permethylation of the amino acid backbone and is the longest polypeptide bearing a tryptenamine C-terminus, blocks >90% of Plasmodium falciparum liver-stage parasite development at 6.1 mu M.

Four new cyclic peptides, psychrophilins E-H (1-4), possessing a rare amide linkage between the carboxylic acid in anthranilic acid (ATA) and the nitrogen from an indole moiety, along with a new ATA-containing hexapeptide, versicotide C (5), were obtained from the culture of the marine-derived fungus Aspergillus versicolor ZLN-60. The structures, including absolute configurations, were elucidated by a combination of HRESIMS, NMR, X-ray crystallography, TDDFT ECD calculations, and Marfey's method. Versicotide C (5) is the first natural cyclic hexapeptide containing two anthranilic acids. Compounds 1-5 were not cytotoxic, and compound 3 showed potent lipid-lowering effects.
