Environmental DNA (eDNA) offers an alternative for detecting marine organisms; however, its application in deep-sea ecosystems is limited by the sampling accessibility.

Abstract Two new dimeric diketopiperazines, piperasagamines A (1) and B (2), were discovered from the cultured material of a deep-sea-derived Aspergillus sp. FKJ-0404 strain. The planar structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis as dimeric diketopiperazines featuring an α, β-dehydroproline moiety. The absolute configurations of 1 and 2 were determined by advanced Marfey’s analysis combined with the analysis of their reduced derivatives.
