Abstract in Portuguese
Os fungos são microrganismos amplamente dispersos, podendo ser encontrados em vegetais, animais, solo e ambientes aquáticos, participando do ciclo de elementos na natureza. Embora muitos papéis ecológicos tenham sido estudados e descritos para os fungos terrestres, a ecologia de fungos marinhos ainda é pouco conhecida. Assim, os oceanos, que representam aproximadamente metade da biodiversidade global, são uma fonte enorme e virtualmente inexplorada de microrganismos produtores de novos produtos naturais. O objetivo deste trabalho foi isolar linhagens de fungos derivados de uma espécie de alga marinha do gênero Sargassum, visando à avaliação do seu potencial para a produção de metabólitos secundários bioativos. Ao todo foram isoladas 58 linhagens, das quais 52 foram crescidas em meio de cultura líquido e, após a extração com solventes orgânicos, deram origem a 99 extratos. Tais extratos foram avaliados por ensaios de atividade biológica, cromatografia em camada delgada (CCD), ressonância magnética nuclear (RMN) e cromatografia líquida acoplada a detectores de arranjo de diodos, espalhamento de luz evaporativo e espectrômetro de massas (LC - PDA - ELSD - MS). A avaliação pelo ensaio antibiótico foi o que resultou no maior número de extratos ativos (n = 13), seguido dos ensaios enzimático (n = 8), citotóxico (n = 3) e anti-tuberculose (n = 1). O extrato AS Fub 39, que apresentou atividade antibiótica, foi selecionado para estudos adicionais. Este extrato foi purificado por HPLC, e o seu composto majoritário identificado como sendo o 8-metóxi-3,5-dimetilisocroman-6-ol. Posteriormente, a linhagem AS Fub 39 foi taxonomicamente identificada como pertencendo à espécie Penicillium steckii.

Abstract in English
Fungi are widely disperse microorganisms, typically associated with plants, animals, soil and aquatic environments (fresh and sea water), participating in the elements cycling. Although many ecological roles have been described for terrestrial fungi, ecological studies of marine derived fungi are still scarce. Therefore, oceans, which represent approximately half of the global biodiversity, are a huge and virtually unexplored source of microorganisms producers of interesting metabolites. The aim of this study was to isolate fungal strains derived from a marine algae of the Sargassum genus, and the evaluation of their metabolical potential for the production of secondary metabolites. Overall, 58 strains were isolated, of which 52 were grown in liquid culture media and extracted with organic solvents, originating 99 crude extracts. These extracts were analyzed by bioassays, thin layer chromatography (TLC), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and liquid chromatography coupled with a photo diode array, an evaporative light scattering, and a mass spectrometry detectors (LC - PDA - ELSD - MS). The evaluation with the antibiotic assay resulted in the largest number of active extracts (n = 13), followed by the enzymatic (n = 8), the cytotoxic (n = 3) and the antituberculosis (n = 1) assays. The crude extract AS Fub 39, which presented antibiotic activity, was selected for additional studies. This extract was purified by HPLC, and its major compound identified as the 8-methoxy-3,5-dimethylisocroman-6-ol. Later, the AS Fub 39 strain was taxonomically identified as Penicillium steckii.
