Abstract

A bacterial strain YMF 3.175 was identified as Alcaligenes faecalis based on its 16S rRNA sequence. Seven compounds including 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid bis(2α-methylheptyl) ester (1), cyclo(L-Pro-L-Val) (2), cyclo(Gly-L-Pro) (3), 3-pyridinecarboxylic acid (4), cyclo(L-Pro-L-Tyr) (5), adenosine (6) and L-Val (7) were obtained from the extracts of fermentation broth of this bacterium. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data. All compounds were assayed for antibacterial activity and the activity of inducing trap formation in nematophagous fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora. Compounds 1, 3 and 6 showed activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Compound 7 induced trap formation in A. oligospora.
