This review presents the biological activity—antibacterial, antifungal, anti-parasitic, antiviral,
antitumor, antiinflammatory, antioxidant, and enzymatic activity—of halogenated marine …

Marine sponges are sessile invertebrates that can be found in temperate, polar and tropical
regions. They are known to be major contributors of bioactive compounds, which are …

In the last decades researchers of natural products chemistry focused their research in a
wide variety of bioactive compounds from marine species. Marine sponges (Porifera) have …

The 3D structure and surface characteristics of proteins and peptides are crucial for
interactions with receptors or ligands and can be modified to some extent to modulate their …

Marine sponges remain representative of a unique source of renewable biological materials.
The demosponges of the family Ianthellidae possess chitin-based skeletons with high …

The present volume is the third in a trilogy that documents naturally occurring
organohalogen compounds, bringing the total number—from fewer than 25 in 1968—to …

Ten bromotyrosine alkaloids were isolated and characterised from the marine sponge
Aplysinella rhax (de Laubenfels 1954) collected from the Fiji Islands, which included one …

Natural products (NPs) are a rich source of medicines, but traditional discovery methods are
often unsuccessful due to high rates of rediscovery. Genetic approaches for NP discovery …

The Verongida order comprises several sponge families, such as Aplysinellidae,
Aplysinidae, Ianthellidae, and Pseudoceratinidae, reported for producing bromotyrosine …

Four new brominated tyrosine metabolites, aplyzanzines C–F (1–4), were isolated from the
French Polynesian sponge Pseudoceratina n. sp., along with the two known 2 …
