Discobahamin A [1] and discobahamin B [2] are two bioactive peptides i solated from a new species of the Bahamian deep water marine sponge Di scodermia. The discobahamins are inhibitors of the growth of Candida a lbicans, and the isolation and structure elucidation of I and 2 by nmr and chemical methods is described.
