Masteria Yunovilsa Putra and Irwandi Jaswir

A large variety of alkaloids compounds have been isolated from marine sponges. Many of these compounds show interesting biological activities. In this review, we report the alkaloid isolated from Indonesian marine sponges complete with their structure, names, literatures and biological activities. The major part of the alkaloid isolated from the Indonesian marine sponges: Leucteta chagosensis, Agelas linnaei, Acanthostrongylophora sp with majority of alkaloid groups: imidazole alkaloid, brominated pyrrole, manzamine alkaloid and other type of alkaloids.
