RESUMO
A new cyclopeptide, together with three known amino acid derivatives, was isolated from marine-derived fungus Aspergillus flavipes, which was found in the gut of isopod Ligia oceanica. The novel peptide contains four amino acid units, proline, 5-methoxyanthranilic acid, isoleucine and 3-aminoacrylic acid. Its structure was determined on the basis of NMR, HR-MS and MS(n) spectral data analysis. The two unusual amino acid residues, 5-methoxyanthranilic acid and 3-aminoacrylic acid, were first found in natural product. The known compound N-benzoyl-phenylalanine methyl ester was first found as fungal metabolite. This is the first report of natural products isolated from marine gut fungi.
