Differences in Metabolite Profiles and Bioactivities of Intra-Strain Variants of Marine Fungus <i>Penicillium antarcticum</i> KMM 4668

<b>Background:</b> During the cultivation of the marine fungus KMM 4668 on solid agar medium, the morphological instability of the strain was observed. As a result of the selection work, five intra-strain variants, named KMM 4711, KMM 4712, KMM 4713, KMM 4714, and KMM 4715, were obtained...

description <b>Background:</b> During the cultivation of the marine fungus KMM 4668 on solid agar medium, the morphological instability of the strain was observed. As a result of the selection work, five intra-strain variants, named KMM 4711, KMM 4712, KMM 4713, KMM 4714, and KMM 4715, were obtained. <b>Methods:</b> The main objectives of this work were to compare the parent strain and its intra-strain variants using multi-locus phylogenetic analysis and to study the UPLC MS metabolite profiles and cytotoxic activities of their extracts. <b>Results:</b> A study of the original strain, KMM 4668, and its intra-strain variants using multi-locus phylogenetic analysis showed that they are sequence identical and belong to <i>Penicillium antarcticum</i>. UPLC MS metabolite profiling of fungal extracts revealed 20 compounds, including cladosporin-related polyketides, carotane sesquiterpenoids, andrastine meroterpenoids, and alkaloids. It was shown that the intra-strain variants KMM 4713 and KMM 4714 differed most strongly from the others in the increased production of cladosporin-related compounds, carotanoids, and the alkaloid chrysogin. In addition, the influence of fungal extracts on the viability of four mammalian cell lines was investigated. <b>Conclusions:</b> It has been shown that the intra-strain variants of <i>P. antarcticum</i> KMM 4668 may be promising sources of bioactive secondary metabolites.
