Abstract
Three previously undescribed polyketides, fusaritricins E-G (1–3), along with eight known ones (4–11), were isolated from the endophytic fungus Fusarium sp. HC20 derived from the root of Rhodiola rosea L. Their chemical structures, including the absolute configurations, were elucidated through comprehensive spectroscopic analysis, such as HR-ESI-MS, 1D NMR, 2D NMR and ECD. Compounds 1–9 were evaluated for their antifungal activities against Candida albicans CMCC 98001 and Aspergillus niger R330. The results indicated that 1 and 2 exhibited bioactivities against C. albicans comparable to the positive control caspofungin, with MIC values of 12.5 μg/mL.
期刊介绍:
Phytochemistry Letters invites rapid communications on all aspects of natural product research including:
• Structural elucidation of natural products
• Analytical evaluation of herbal medicines
• Clinical efficacy, safety and pharmacovigilance of herbal medicines
• Natural product biosynthesis
• Natural product synthesis and chemical modification
• Natural product metabolism
• Chemical ecology
• Biotechnology
• Bioassay-guided isolation
• Pharmacognosy
• Pharmacology of natural products
• Metabolomics
• Ethnobotany and traditional usage
• Genetics of natural products
Manuscripts that detail the isolation of just one new compound are not substantial enough to be sent out of review and are out of scope. Furthermore, where pharmacology has been performed on one new compound to increase the amount of novel data, the pharmacology must be substantial and/or related to the medicinal use of the producing organism.
