RESUMEN
Two rearranged triterpenoids, representing new subtypes of pentacyclic triterpenoids, with unique 6/6/6/7/5 and 6/6/5/6/6/6 ring systems were isolated from Alstonia scholaris. Their structures were established by spectroscopic analysis, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and electronic circular dichroism calculations. Both compounds exhibited potent antihyperuricemic bioactivity in vitro and in vivo.

Endophytic fungi play important roles for host's stress tolerance including invasion by pathogenic microbes. Small molecules are common weapons in the microbe-microbe interactions. Panax notoginseng is a widely used traditional Chinese medicinal plant and harbors many endophytes, some exert functions against pathogens. Here, we report six new compounds named myrothins A-F (1-6) produced by Myrothecium sp. BS-31, an endophyte isolated from P. notoginseng, and their antifungal activities against pathogenic fungi causing host root-rot disease. Their structures were elucidated with analysis of spectroscopic data including 1D and 2D NMR, HR-ESI-MS. Myrothins B (2) and E (5) showed the weak activity against Fusarium oxysporum and Phoma herbarum, and myrothins F (6) showed weak activity against F. oxysporum.

A novel Gram-positive bacterium, designated strain YIM PH21725T, was isolated from a sample of rhizospheric soil of Panaxnotoginseng cultivated in Anning, Yunnan. The strain contained meso-diaminopimelic acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan. The main fatty acids identified were C17â:â0, iso-C15â:â0, iso-C16â:â0 and C16â:â0. The main menaquinone was MK-9 (H4). The polar lipids included phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol mannoside, phosphatidylinositol, phospholipids and phospholipids of an unidentified structure containing glucosamine. The G+C content of genomic DNA was 69.43 mol%. On the basis of its 16S rRNA gene sequence, strain YIM PH21725T should belong to the genus Amycolatopsis, and was closely related to Amycolatopsis sulphurea DSM 46092T (98.57â%), Amycolatopsis jejuensis JCM13280T (97.27â%), Amycolatopsis jiangsuensis KCTC 19885T (96.88â%) and Amycolatopsis ultiminotia JCM 16989T (96.8â%). The phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, phylogenetic and digital DNA-DNA hybridization results clearly indicated that strain YIM PH21725T represents a novel species of the genus Amycolatopsis, for which the name Amycolatopsispanacis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM PH21725T (=CCTCC AA 2017044T=KCTC 49031T=DSM 105902T).
