Two novel compounds, stachyflin and acetylstachyflin, have been isolated by solid-state fermentation of Stachybotrys sp. RF-7260. The structures of both metabolites, determined by detailed NMR analyses and X-ray crystallographic analysis, are novel with a pentacyclic moiety including cis-fused decalin. The absolute stereochemistry of stachyflins was determined by circular dichroism analysis. Stachyflin showed antiviral activity against influenza A virus (H1N1) in vitro with an IC50 value of 0.003 microM. Acetylstachyflin was about 77-fold less active than stachyflin.

Article Synopsis
  • - Stachybotrys sp. RF-7260 produces new anti-influenza compounds called stachyflins when grown under solid-state fermentation, especially when specific amino acids are added.
  • - Adding DL-lysine leads to the creation of compounds SQ-02-S-L2 and -L1, while DL-valine produces SQ-02-S-VI and -V2.
  • - The newly identified SQ-02-S-V2, which has an amidine structure, shows strong antiviral activity similar to the original stachyflin, while others have lower effectiveness.
