Journal ArticleDOI

Androsamide, a Cyclic Tetrapeptide from a Marine Nocardiopsis sp., Suppresses Motility of Colorectal Cancer Cells.

TL;DR: A cyclic tetrapeptide, androsamide (1), was isolated from a marine actinomycete of the genus Nocardiopsis, strain CNT-189 and strongly suppressed the motility of Caco2 cells caused by epithelial-mesenchymal transition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic Complementation of the Obligate Marine Actinobacterium Salinispora tropica with the Large Mechanosensitive Channel Gene mscL Rescues Cells from Osmotic Downshock

TL;DR: Enhanced survival of the S. tropica transformant provides experimental evidence that the loss of mscL is associated with the failure of Salinispora spp.
Journal ArticleDOI

PGF2α-9-O-Acetate Methyl Ester, A Minor Naturally Occurring Prostaglandin from the Gorgonian Coral Plexaura homomalla

TL;DR: PGF 2α -9-O-acetate methyl ester has been found as a natural product in extracts of the gorgonian coral Plexaura homomalla collected in the Bahama islands.
Journal ArticleDOI

Marinopyrones A–D, α-pyrones from marine-derived actinomycetes of the family Nocardiopsaceae

TL;DR: Marinopyrones A–C are only the second reported natural products from the rare halophilic genus Streptomonospora, and the structures of which were elucidated by interpretation of 1D and 2D NMR and HRMS spectroscopic data.
