Chemical Constituents of the Endophytes Aspergillus fumigatus C-89-1 Isolated from Angelica sinensis.

This article, published in Chemistry of Natural Compounds, examines the chemical constituents of the endophytic fungus Aspergillus fumigatus C-89-1 found in Angelica sinensis. The focus of the study is on the fungus's antibacterial properties and its metabolites. By conducting fermentation and extraction processes, the researchers were able to isolate and identify several compounds. The article provides detailed information about the chemical structures, properties, and antibacterial activity of these compounds against Staphylococcus aureus. This research contributes to our understanding of endophytic fungi and their potential medicinal uses. The document also includes information on various chemical compounds, such as linoleic acid, methyl linoleate, 2-linoleoylglycerol, and cyclotryprostatin B, providing molecular formulas, physical properties, and spectroscopic data for each compound. The study received support from multiple funding sources, and the authors acknowledge the contributions of Kang-Xu Wang and Yu-Pei Mu to the research. [Extracted from the article]
