Metabolite Identification
Common NameAsterrelenin
DescriptionAsterrelenin is a novel alkaloid belonging to the chemical class of meroterpenoids. It was isolated from the thermophilic fungus Aspergillus terreus TM8, alongside other metabolites such as terretonin M and terrelumamide A (PMID:16124769 ). This compound exhibits a complex tetracyclic structure and is part of a broader group of bioactive secondary metabolites produced by fungi, which often possess significant pharmacological properties. The biosynthetic pathways leading to the formation of asterrelenin and its related compounds highlight the intricate chemistry involved in fungal metabolism. Asterrelenin's potential biological activities and interactions within biological systems are of interest, particularly in the context of its isolation from a thermophilic organism, which may suggest unique adaptive features that enhance its stability or efficacy in various environments. Further research into asterrelenin could elucidate its role in the ecology of Aspergillus terreus and its potential applications in medicine, particularly in the development of new therapeutic agents derived from fungal metabolites (PMID:16124769 ).
