Abstract
The extract of marine green algae Enteromorpha sp. was evaluated in vitro for inhibitory activity against mushroom tyrosinase enzyme. The principle active agents i.e. coumarin; 4-hydroxycoumarin (1) and two sterols; ergosta-5,7,22-trien-3β-ol (2) & ergosterol peroxide (3) were isolated for the first time, from a crude methanol extract of Enteromorpha sp. showing anti-tyrosinase activity. Their structures were elucidated by IR, extensive NMR spectroscopy, LC-ESI-MS, Single crystal X-ray diffraction techniques. Thus, Enteromorpha sp. can be an alternative edible anti-tyrosinase agent.
Keywords: Marine natural products, anti-tyrosinase activity, Enteromorpha sp., Ulvaceae, marine algae.
