Spirotryprostatin A is an indolic alkaloid from the 25-Diketopiperazine class of natural products found in the Aspergillus fumigatus fungus. Spirotryprostatin A and several other indolic alkaloids (including Spirotryprostatin B as well as other tryprostatins and cyclotryprostatins) have been found to have anti-mitotic properties and as such they have become of great interest as anti-cancer drugs.
