A new polyhydroxylated pyrrolizidine alkaloid designated as pochonicine (1) was isolated from a solid fermentation culture of the fungal strain Pochonia suchlasporia var. suchlasporia TAMA 87. The structure of 1 was determined using NMR and MS techniques as (1R*, 3S*, 5S*, 6S*, 7R*, 7a S*)-5-acetamidomethyl-3-hydroxymethyl-1,6,7-trihydroxypyrrolizidine. Pochonicine (1) showed potent inhibition against beta-N-acetylglucosaminidases (GlcNAcases) of various organisms including insects, fungi, mammals, and a plant but no inhibition against beta-glucosidase of almond, alpha-glucosidase of yeast, or chitinase of Bacillus sp. The GlcNAcase inhibitory activity of pochonicine (1) was comparable to nagstatin, a potent GlcNAcase inhibitor of natural origin.
