Metabolite Identification
Common NameAsperpyrone E
DescriptionAsperpyrone E is a naphtho-γ-pyrone, a chemical class known for its diverse biological activities and potential applications in pharmacology. This metabolite has been identified in various studies focusing on secondary metabolites produced by fungi. Specifically, Aspergillus tubingensis G131, a non-toxigenic strain, has been reported to yield several naphtho-γ-pyrones, including asperpyrone E, alongside other compounds such as aurasperone A and fonsecin (PMID:31878243 ). Additionally, bioactivity-guided fractionation of extracts from Aspergillus niger, an endophytic fungus associated with the Chinese liverwort Heteroscyphus tener, has led to the isolation of asperpyrone E among other naphtho-γ-pyrones, indicating its potential cytotoxic properties (PMID:31878243 ). The presence of such metabolites suggests a role in the ecological interactions of these fungi, possibly contributing to their competitive advantage in various environments. Further research into the biochemical pathways and biological functions of asperpyrone E may reveal insights into its mechanisms of action and potential therapeutic uses.
