Abstract:

In this study, we investigated the metabolites from coastal mud-derived fungus WH7-2 by using the quorum sensing inhibitory (QSI) activity-oriented approach. The strain WH7-2 was identified as F. solani by analyzing its morphological characteristics and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence. Chemical investigation of the rice fermentation product led to the isolation of 11 compounds. Their structures were elucidated as (2E, 5E)-3, 5, 7-trimethyl-2, 5-octadienoic acid (1), mixtures of unsaturated fatty acid ester (2, 3 and 4), 3-methyl ether fusarubin (5), Anhydrofusarubin (6), (22E)-5α, 8α- epidioxy-ergosta-6, 22-diene-3β-ol(7), (22E)-5α, 8α-epidioxy-ergosta-6, 9(11), 22-triene-3β-ol (8), 3β-hydroxycholest-5-en-7-one(9), 6β-hydroxy-cholest-4-en-3-one(10), and (22E)-cholest-5, 22-dien-3β-ol(11). All compounds were evaluated for their QSI activities, and only the mixtures of unsaturated fatty acid ester (2-4) exhibited QSI activity. All the compounds except 5 and 6 were first reported from F. solani.

Key words: QSI, Fusarium solani, unsaturated fatty acid ester, steroid, fusarubin
