New Alkaloids from the Mediterranean Sponge Hamigera hamigera
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Mediterranean sponge Hamigera hamigera (family Anchinoideae) was studied since its total extract showed deterrent activity in a fish feeding assay. Eight compounds were isolated from the biologically active fractions and four of these proved to be new natural products, hamigeroxalamic acid (1), hamigeramine (2), hamigeramide (3) and hamiguanosinol (5). The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry .

Structurally diverse hamigerans from the New Zealand marine sponge Hamigera tarangaensis: NMR-directed isolation, structure elucidation and antifungal activity.
The NMR-directed investigation of the New Zealand marine sponge Hamigera tarangaensis has afforded ten new compounds of the hamigeran family, and a new 13-epi-verrucosane congener. Notably, hamigeran F (6) possesses an unusual carbon–carbon bond between C-12 and C-13, creating an unprecedented skeleton within this class. In particular, the structural features of 6, hamigeran H (10) and hamigera...
متن کاملSpecies-level assessment of secondary metabolite diversity among Hamigera species and a taxonomic note on the genus
Secondary metabolite phenotypes in nine species of the Hamigera clade were analysed to assess their correlations to a multi-gene species-level phylogeny. High-pressure-liquid-chromatography-based chemical analysis revealed three distinctive patterns of secondary metabolite production: (1) the nine species could be divided into two groups on the basis of production of the sesquiterpene tricinono...
متن کاملFurther Investigation of the Mediterranean Sponge Axinella polypoides: Isolation of a New Cyclonucleoside and a New Betaine
An exhaustive exploration into the metabolic content of the Mediterranean sponge Axinella-polypoides resulted in the isolation of the new betaine 5 and the new cyclonucleoside 8. The structures of the new metabolites were elucidated by spectroscopic methods assisted by computational methods. The analysis also provided evidence that the sponge does not elaborate pyrrole-imidazole alkaloids (PIAs...
متن کاملHow Environmental Factors Affect the Production of Guanidine Alkaloids by the Mediterranean Sponge Crambe crambe
Most marine sponges are known to produce a large array of low molecular-weight metabolites which have applications in the pharmaceutical industry. The production of so-called specialized metabolites may be closely related to environmental factors. In this context, assessing the contribution of factors like temperature, nutrients or light to the metabolomes of sponges provides relevant insights ...
متن کاملAnsamitocins, maytansinoid antitumor antibiotics. Producing organism, fermentation, and antimicrobial activities.
Ansamitocins are new maytansinoid antitumor antibiotics produced by an actinomycete strain No. C-15003 (N-1). The organism is characterized by coremia formation on solid media, release of the rod-shaped motile spores with peritrichous flagella in liquid media, the formation of some branched mycelia at a later stage of growth in liquid culture which break up into motile elements, lysozyme resist...
