An Aspergillus versicolor isolated from sediment collected from the Bohai Sea, China, yielded the new dimeric diketopiperazine brevianamide S (1), together with three new monomeric cometabolites, brevianamides T (2), U (3), and V (4). Structures were determined by detailed spectroscopic analysis. Brevianamide S exhibited selective antibacterial activity against Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG), suggestive of a new mechanism of action that could inform the development of next-generation antitubercular drugs.
从中国渤海采集的沉积物中分离到的变色曲霉产生了新的二聚二酮哌嗪布列维酰胺 S(1),以及三个新的单体代谢产物,布列维酰胺 T(2)、U(3)和 V(4)。结构通过详细的光谱分析确定。布列维酰胺 S 对卡介苗(BCG)表现出选择性的抗菌活性,提示了一种新的作用机制,可能为开发下一代抗结核药物提供信息。
