A new hopan‐type triterpenoic peracid, tinctoride A (1), together with three known compounds, zeorin (2), 6β,22‐dihydroxyhopane (3), and ergosterol peroxide (4), was isolated from Parmotrema tinctorum (Despr. ex Nyl.) Hale. Their chemical structures were identified by extensive 1D and 2D NMR analysis and high‐resolution mass spectroscopy and compared ...

We investigate species boundaries and the potential for micro‐endemism for a charismatic genus of lichen fungi occurring in Baja California. Genome‐scale data support high species‐level diversity, along with high levels of endemism, while highlighting the problem of delimiting species, particularly in groups with complex, recent phylogeographic ...

Climate‐specific biosynthetic gene clusters in populations of a lichen‐forming fungus
Summary Natural products can contribute to abiotic stress tolerance in plants and fungi. We hypothesize that biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs), the genomic elements that underlie natural product biosynthesis, display structured differences along elevation gradients.

A computational insight into acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activity of a new lichen depsidone [PDF]
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors are yet the best drugs currently available for the management of Alzheimer's disease. The recent phytochemical investigation has led to the isolation of a new depsidone 1 with moderate AChE activity (1 mu g).

Theoretical Study on the Antioxidant Activity of Natural Depsidones [PDF]
Depsidones are secondary metabolites in lichens with a range of potential health benefits. Among others, these compounds are believed to exhibit high hydroxyl radical and superoxide scavenging abilities, warranting a detailed investigation of their antioxidant properties.

Cytotoxicity of Alkyl Derivatives of Protocetraric Acid
The protocetraric acid (1) is a depsidone produced by countless species of lichens and has shown potential biological activity. In this work, we evaluated through the sulforhodamine B (SRB) assay the cytotoxic activity of seven alkyl ether derivatives ...
