Pseudoalteromone A, a Ubiquinone Derivative from Marine <i>Pseudoalteromonas</i> spp., Suppresses Melanogenesis

An ubiquinone derivative, pseudoalteromone A (<b>1</b>), has been isolated from two marine-derived <i>Pseudoalteromonas</i> spp., APmarine002 and ROA-050, and its anti-melanogenesis activity was investigated. The anti-melanogenic capacity of pseudoalteromone A was demonstrate...
