Betaenone
Betaenones are phytotoxins found in the fungus Pleospora betae.[1] The compounds were found to inhibit a variety of protein kinases.[2]
Members of this class of chemical compounds include:
Two further betaenones were found in a species of the fungus Microsphaeropsis, which was isolated from the marine sponge Aplysina aerophoba.[3]
