Cladosporamide A, a new protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B inhibitor, produced by an Indonesian marine sponge-derived Cladosporium sp.

Cladosporamide A (1), a new protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) 1B inhibitor, was isolated together with a known prenylated flavanone derivative (2) from the culture broth of an Indonesian marine sponge-derived Cladosporium sp. TPU1507 by solvent extraction, ODS column chromatography, and preparative HPLC (ODS). The structure of 1 was elucidated based on 1D and 2D NMR data.
