Bacteria associated with tunicate, Polycarpa aurata, from Lease Sea, Maluku, Indonesia exhibiting anti-multidrug resistant bacteria. Biodiversitas 20: 956-964. Tunicate is a rich secondary metabolites producer with various biological activities whether as an original producer or produced by the associated microorganisms. In this study, a total of 11 tunicate specimens were identified as Polycarpa aurata with four color variations based on morphological characteristic and COI gene identification and BLAST analysis. -
Natural Products Diversity of Marine Ascidians (Tunicates; Ascidiacea) and Successful Drugs in Clinical Development
Nat. Prod. Bioprospect. DOI 10.1007/s13659-016-0115-5 REVIEW Natural Products Diversity of Marine Ascidians (Tunicates; Ascidiacea) and Successful Drugs in Clinical Development Satheesh Kumar Palanisamy . N. M. Rajendran . Angela Marino Received: 19 November 2016 / Accepted: 14 December 2016 Ó The Author(s) 2017. This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract This present study reviewed the chemical diversity of marine ascidians and their pharmacological applications, challenges and recent developments in marine drug discovery reported during 1994–2014, highlighting the structural activity of compounds produced by these specimens. Till date only 5% of living ascidian species were studied from\3000 species, this study represented from family didemnidae (32%), polyclinidae (22%), styelidae and polycitoridae (11–12%) exhibiting the highest number of promising MNPs. Close to 580 compound structures are here discussed in terms of their occurrence, structural type and reported biological activity. Anti-cancer drugs are the main area of interest in the screening of MNPs from ascidians (64%), followed by anti-malarial (6%) and remaining others. FDA approved ascidian compounds mechanism of action along with other compounds status of clinical trials (phase 1 to phase 3) are discussed here in. This review highlights recent developments in the area of natural products chemistry and biotechnological approaches are emphasized. Keywords Cancer Á Cytotoxicity Á Diversity Á Metabolites Á Pharmacology 1 Introduction from marine invertebrates, especially sponges, ascidians, bryozoans and molluscs in which some of them are The study of marine natural products (MNPs) is becoming approved by FDA and currently utilized in clinical trials ever more sophisticated and an increasingly collaborative [1]. -

Abstract: Marine tunicates are identified as a potential source of marine natural products (MNPs), demonstrating a wide range of biological properties, like antimicrobial and anticancer activities. The symbiotic relationship between tunicates and specific microbial groups has revealed the acquisi- tion of microbial compounds by tunicates for defensive purpose. For instance, yellow pigmented compounds, “tambjamines”, produced by the tunicate, Sigillina signifera (Sluiter, 1909), primarily Citation: Ramesh, C.; Tulasi, B.R.; originated from their bacterial symbionts, which are involved in their chemical defense function, indi- Raju, M.; Thakur, N.; Dufossé, L. cating the ecological role of symbiotic microbial association with tunicates.

THE OUTLINE OF JAPANESE ASCIDIAN FAUNA AS COMPARED WITH 1 2 THAT OF THE PACIFIC COASTS OF NORTH AMERICA. • ) T AKASI TOKIOKA Seto Marine Biological Laboratory L The outline of the ascidian fauna of the Japanese waters The review of the ascidian fauna of the Japanese waters was first made by HARTMEYER* who referred in his paper of 1906 to 43 species including a number of those that were newly established or recorded by himself form the Japanese waters. About thirty years later, the late Prof. Asajir6 0KA** made the second review (1935) on Japanese ascidian fauna as he closed his studies on ascidians for about forty years. He mentioned that there were 106 ascidian species known from the Japanese waters and that of these species endemic ones were the most abundant, though 8 arctic and 6 tropical species and 2 cosmopolitans were included. Further he divided the endemic species into two groups, the northern and southern groups; the former comprised the species occurring in the waters surrounding Hokkaido Island and the northern half of Honsyfi Island, while the latter consisted of ones living in the waters along the coasts of Kyfisyfi and Sikoku Islands and the southern half of Honsyfi Island.
