ABSTRACT
Objective To screen endophytic fungal strains isolated from wild Huperzia serrata which can produce alkaloids and huperzine A (HupA). Methods Thirty-three endophytic fungal strains were obtained from H.serrata.Alkaloid production was assayed with alkaloid precipitation and acid dye colorimetry. Then, the crude extracts of alkaloids produced from fungal strains were analyzed by modulation of acetylcholinesterase(AChE) activity, TLC and HPLC. Identification of endophytic fungi producing HupA was based on morphology analysis. Results Seven alkaloids produced by endophytic fungal strains were determined based on alkaloid precipitation and acid dye colorimetry, among which strain V generated HupA in vitro. Morphology analysis showed that strain V belonged to Penicillium. Conclusion A high percentage of fungal strains isolated from H.serrata leaves has alkaloid producing potentials. It is the first report that Penicillium species produced HupA. The screening of endophytic fungi producing HupA based on alkaloid precipitation and acid dye colorimetry, AChE activity and structure identification are more efficient and directive.
