Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolites from an Antarctic Sponge-Associated Bacterium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa
TL;DR: In an ongoing survey of the bioactive potential of microorganisms associated with marine invertebrates, the culture media of a sponge-associated bacterial strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa was found to contain metabolites which inhibit the growth of several Gram-positive microorganisms.
Reference BookDOI
Marine Chemical Ecology
TL;DR: Background Introduction to the Chemical Ecology of Marine Natural Products, M.J.R. Copp, R.D. Paul, E. Cruz-Rivera, and R.M. Paul Contributions of Marine Chemical Ecology to Chemosensory Neurobiology, H.H. Rittschof Metabolites of Free-Living, Commensal, and Symbiotic Benthic Marine Microorganisms, V.G. Steinberg and K.K. Ghiselin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecology of Antarctic Marine Sponges: An Overview
TL;DR: Colation in Antarctic sponges may be the result of relict pigments originally selected for aposematism or UV screens yet conserved because of their defensive properties, supported by the bioactive properties of pigments examined to date in a suite of common Antarctic spongees.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cold-water marine natural products
TL;DR: Marine natural products isolated from organisms collected from cold-water habitats are described, with emphasis on bioactive compounds from tunicates, sponges, microbes, bryozoans, corals, algae, molluscs and echinoderms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Palmerolide A, a Cytotoxic Macrolide from the Antarctic Tunicate Synoicum adareanum
TL;DR: Palmerolide A, a 20-membered macrocyclic polyketide bearing carbamate and vinyl amide functionality, was isolated from the tunicate Synoicum adareanum collected from the vicinity of Palmer Station on the Antarctic Peninsula and displays potent and selective cytotoxicity toward melanoma.
