EFV (efavirenz) and β-thujaplicinol [2,7-dihydroxy-4-1(methylethyl)-2,4,6-cycloheptatrien-1-one] have contrasting effects on the RNase H activity of HIV-1 RT (reverse transcriptase). EFV binds in the non-nucleoside inhibitor-binding pocket and accelerates this activity, whereas β-thujaplicinol binds in the RNase H active site and inhibits

Surface-associated marine bacteria often produce secondary metabolites with antagonistic activities. In this study, tropodithietic acid (TDA) was identified to be responsible for the antibacterial activity of the marine epiphytic bacterium Pseudovibrio sp. D323 and related strains. Phenol was also produced

A new butyrolactone, 7″-hydroxybutyrolactone III (1) and three new cycloheptanetriones, terretrione A-C (2-4), together with five known compounds, butyrolactone I, cyclo(Leu-Pro), cyclo(Val-Pro), cyclo(Ile-Pro), cyclo(Phe-Pro), were isolated from mangrove-associated marine fungus Aspergillus terreus. The structures of these compounds were elucidated on
