| Abstract
| - A detailed analysis of the secondary metabolites of the sponge Aplysina cauliformis has been performed.Eight compounds were identified, two of which (13 and 14) are new bromotyrosine derivatives whosestructures were determinated from spectroscopic evidence, including 2D NMR. The new compounds wereanalyzed for cytotoxic activity, and compound 14 was shown to inhibit mammalian protein synthesisand cell proliferation.
