presumably is not important for the cytotoxicity.

2.Agelas nakamurai secondary metabolites
Extract of the sponge Agelas nakamurai collected in Menjangan Island, yielded five monobrominated pyrrole derivatives, one of which is found to be a new congener, longamide C (20). A hypotaurocyamine diterpenoid, (+)-agelasidine C (19) was isolated together along with adenine related compounds, adenosine and 9-methyladenine as well as the new diterpenoids derivatves, (-)-agelasine-D (18) and its congener (-)-ageloxime-D (17).
(-)-Agelasine D, (-)-ageloxime D and (+)-agelasidine-C exhibit prominent cytotoxicity towards the mouse lymphoma cell line L5178Y. Biofilm inhibition assay done on (-)-agelasine D, (-)-ageloxime D, (+)-agelasidine C as well as on (-)-agelasine I suggests that the diterpene part is important for the activity together with the adeninium part. Between the (-)-agelasine D and (-)-ageloxime D, the amine unit on C-6' is important for the antibacterial activity. A replacement of the amine unit with an oxime group as in the ageloxime D will displace the antibacterial activity but on the other hand will inhibit biofilm-formation of S. epidermidis. Both (-)-agelasine-D and (-)-ageloxime D were toxic to the cyprids larva of Balanus improvisus Darwin, where (-)-ageloxime D was approximately 10 times more toxic than (-)-agelasine D.

3. Pseudoceratina purpurea secondary metabolites
Extract of the sponge Pseudoceratina purpurea collected in Watudodol, Banyuwangi, yielded five brominated tyrosine derivatives. The presence of the antifouling substance, aplysamine-2 (27) as well as isofistularin-3-bioconversion products, (+)-aeroplysinin-1 (28), bisoxazolidinone derivatives (29), together with the dienone ketal congeners 30 and 31 were identified.

4.Axynissa sp. secondary metabolites
Search on bioactive compounds as protein kinase inhibitors has lead to the isolation of two bisabolene phenol derivatives, (+)-curcuphenol (33) and (+)-curcudiol (34) in the active fractions of Axynissa sp. collected from Ambon, Maluku.

5.Mycale phyllophyla secondary metabolites
Study on the sponge extract Mycale phyllophyla collected from Menjangan Island, Bali, revealed the presence of 5-pentadecyl-1H-pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde derivatives (32a) together with (E)-5-pentadec-6-enyl-1H-pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde (32b) in a cytotoxic active fraction.

6.Rhabdastrella rowi secondary metabolite
The quinolin-4-ol (35) was obtained from the Balinese marine sponge Rhabdastrella rowi extract in minute quantity. Up to now this compound has only been obtained synthetically and has never been reported from natural sources.
