Phytochemistry. 2013 Sep:93:199-202. doi: 10.1016/j.phytochem.2013.03.018. Epub 2013 May 1.

Abstract

An antibiotic polyketide, Cryptosporioptide (1) was isolated from the culture extract of the endophytic fungus Cryptosporiopsis sp. The structure of Cryptosporioptide has been established with the help of 1D ((1)H, (13)C), 2D NMR (HSQC, HMBC, COSY, NOESY) techniques and mass spectrometry (FABMS, HRFABMS). The absolute configuration was established by means of electronic circular dichroism (ECD). Cryptosporioptide exhibited both lipoxygenase inhibitory and anti-Bacillus megaterium activities.

Keywords: Anti-Bacillus megaterium; Cryptosporiopsis sp.; Endophytic fungus; Lipoxygenase inhibition; Novel polyketide; TDDFT CD calculations.
