Characterization of the depsidone gene cluster reveals etherification, decarboxylation and multiple halogenations as tailoring steps in depsidone assembly [PDF]
Depsides and depsidones have attracted attention for biosynthetic studies due to their broad biological activities and structural diversity. Previous structure‒activity relationships indicated that triple halogenated depsidones display the best anti ...

Brominated Depsidones with Antibacterial Effects from a Deep-Sea-Derived Fungus Spiromastix sp. [PDF]
Eleven new brominated depsidones, namely spiromastixones U-Z5 (1–11) along with five known analogues (12–16), were isolated from a deep-sea-derived fungus Spiromastix sp. through the addition of sodium bromide during fermentation.

Bioproduction of Depsidones for Pharmaceutical Purposes [PDF]
الأشنات هي تكافلات حميمة وطويلة الأجل محددة من الطحالب الضوئية أو البكتيريا الزرقاء والفطريات غيرية التغذية التي انضمت لتشكيل كيان بيولوجي جديد مختلف عن مكوناته الفردية (جالون وكارديش، 1995). ينتج الكلوروليكين بشكل أساسي مواد فينولية فريدة من نوعها، ديبيد، ديبسيدون وبعض ثنائي بنزوفيوران، مثل أحماض اليوزنيك (Huneck & Yoshimura، 1996)، التي لا تنتجها ...

Recent advances on natural depsidones: sources, biosynthesis, structure-activity relationship, and bioactivities [PDF]
Depsidones are a class of polyphenolic polyketides that have been proposed to be biosynthesized from oxidative coupling of esters of two polyketidic benzoic acid derivatives. They are principally encountered in fungi and lichens.
