Dioxopiperazine alkaloids, 12R,13S-dihydroxyfumitremorgin C (1), fumitremorgin C (2), and brevianamide F (3), were isolated from the marine-derived fungus Pseudallescheria, and the absolute stereostructures of compounds 1 - 3 were elucidated on the basis of chemical and physicochemical evidence. Compounds 1 - 3 showed an antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, methicillin-resistant S. aureus, and multidrug-resistant S. aureus. The MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) values of compounds 1 - 3 were 125 ${\mu}g/mL$ for all strains.

Chemical study of an Arctic bacterium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pseudomonadaceae) led to the isolation of two diketopiperazines 1 and 2, two phenazine alkaloids 3 and 4, and an indole carbaldehyde 5, along with a benzoic acid derivative 6. The structures of the compounds were confirmed by 1D and 2D NMR, and MS experiments, as well as by comparison of their data with published values. Among the isolates, compounds 5 and 6 were isolated for the first time from P. aeruginosa of the seawater of Arctic Chuckchi Sea. Antimicrobial activities of compounds 1‒6 against a Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans were evaluated.
