Tinctoride A, a New Hopan‐Type Triterpenoic Peracid from the Thallus of Lichen Parmotrema Tinctorum (Despr. ex Nyl.) Hale

open access: yesJournal of Chemistry, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
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 ...

Species boundaries in the messy middle—A genome‐scale validation of species delimitation in a recently diverged lineage of coastal fog desert lichen fungi

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 24, Page 18615-18632, December 2021., 2021
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

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 23, Issue 8, Page 4260-4275, August 2021., 2021
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]

open access: yes, 2015
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).

Anti-Osteoclastogenic and Antibacterial Effects of Chlorinated Polyketides from the Beibu Gulf Coral-Derived Fungus Aspergillus unguis GXIMD 02505

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2022
One new depsidone derivative, aspergillusidone H (3), along with seven known biosynthetically related chlorinated polyketides, were obtained from the Beibu Gulf coral-derived fungus Aspergillus unguis GXIMD 02505.

Theoretical Study on the Antioxidant Activity of Natural Depsidones [PDF]

open access: yesACS Omega, 2020
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

open access: yesOrbital: The Electronic Journal of Chemistry
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 ...
