Structural revision and absolute configuration of lateritin

'Lateritin' (1), a morpholine-2,5-dione (depsipeptide), was reinvestigated for its structure and absolute configuration. On the basis of thorough 1D and 2D NMR and mass spectrometrical analyses, the structure of 1 was revised to be identical with beauvericin (8) and confirmed that beauvericin (8) is the trimeric lactone of 'lateritin' (1). The absolute configuration was determined by acidic hydrolysis, followed by application of Marfey's method, menthyl ester derivatization, and GC-MS analysis. In addition, the specific optical rotation values of the hydrolysis products were compared with those of available standards.

Activation of the NLRP3 Inflammasome by Hyaboron, a New Asymmetric Boron-Containing Macrodiolide from the Myxobacterium Hyalangium minutum

A Natural Compound Library containing myxobacterial secondary metabolites was screened in murine macrophages for novel activators of IL-1β maturation and secretion. The most potent of three hits in total was a so far undescribed metabolite, which was identified from the myxobacterium Hyalangium minutum strain Hym3. While the planar structure of 1 was elucidated by high resolution mass spectrometry and NMR data yielding an asymmetric boron containing a macrodiolide core structure, its relative stereochemistry of all 20 stereocenters of the 42-membered ring was assigned by rotating frame Overhause effect spectroscopy correlations, 1H,1H, and 1H,13C coupling constants, and by comparison of 13C chemical shifts to those of the structurally related metabolites tartrolon B-D. The absolute stereochemistry was subsequently assigned by Mosher's and Marfey's methods. Further functional studies revealed that hyaboron and other boronated natural compounds resulted in NLRP3 inflammasome dependent IL-1β maturation, which is most likely due to their ability to act as potassium ionophores. Moreover, besides its inflammasome-stimulatory activity in human and mouse cells, hyaboron (1) showed additional diverse biological activities, including antibacterial and antiparasitic effects.

Persipeptides A and B, two cyclic peptides from Streptomyces sp. UTMC 1154

Two new N-methylated cyclopeptides, persipeptide A (1) and B (2), have been isolated from Streptomyces sp. UTMC1154. Their structures were established using 1D and 2D NMR experiments. 2D TOCSY experiments were applied to identify the amino acid residues, while HMBC correlations were used to determine their sequence. According to Marfey's method, all amino acids had the l-configuration. The two cyclic peptides had the same ring size and amino acid composition, but differed in their sequence; they did not show activity against the tested bacteria, fungi and algae. Molecular identification experiments placed the strain in the genus Streptomyces closely related to Streptomyces coerulescens DSM40146T (99.45%) and Streptomyces varsoviensis DSM40346T (99.25%).

Isolation of ciliatamide D from a marine sponge Stelletta sp. and a reinvestigation of the configuration of ciliatamide A

A new lipopeptide, ciliatamide D (1), was isolated from a marine sponge Stelletta sp., collected at Oshimashinsone, together with the known compound ciliatamide A (2). Ciliatamide D (1) is a congener of 2, in which N-Me-Phe is replaced by N-Me-Met(O). Marfey's analysis of the acid hydrolysate of 1 demonstrated that the two constituent amino acids were both in the l-form. This result prompted us to carefully investigate the configuration of 2, resulting in the assignment of the l-form for both residues.

Stereocalpin B, a New Cyclic Depsipeptide from the Antarctic Lichen Ramalina terebrata

Stereocalpin B, a new cyclic depsipeptide (1), and a new dibenzofuran derivative (3), were isolated from the Antarctic lichen, Ramalina terebrata (Ramalinaceae), along with a known cyclic depsipeptide (2). The structures of new compounds were characterized by comprehensive spectrometric analyses; high-resolution fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (HR-FABMS) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Stereocalpin B (1) existed in a rotameric equilibrium, which was confirmed using nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NO-ESY)/exchange spectroscopy (EXSY) spectrum. Absolute configurations of the amino acid units in 1 were assigned using the advanced Marfey’s method and subsequent NOESY analysis of the 5-hydroxy-2,4-dimethyl-3-oxo-decanoic acid residue confirmed the complete stereochemistry of 1. Compounds 1-3 exhibited moderate antimicrobial activities against E. coli, with the IC50 values ranging from 18?30 μg/mL. Compound 2 exhibited cell growth inhibition against HCT116 cell lines, with the IC50 value of 20 ± 1.20 μM, and compounds 1 and 2 also showed potent anti-inflammatory activities against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW264.7 macrophages with the IC50 values ranging from 5?7 μM.

Friomaramide, a Highly Modified Linear Hexapeptide from an Antarctic Sponge, Inhibits Plasmodium falciparum Liver-Stage Development

The cold waters of Antarctica are known to harbor a rich biodiversity. Our continuing interest in the chemical analysis of Antarctic invertebrates has resulted in the isolation of friomaramide (1), a new, highly modified hexapeptide, from the Antarctic sponge Inflatella coelosphaeroides. The structure of friomaramide was determined using spectroscopic methods and its configuration established by Marfey's method. Friomaramide, which bears the unusual permethylation of the amino acid backbone and is the longest polypeptide bearing a tryptenamine C-terminus, blocks >90% of Plasmodium falciparum liver-stage parasite development at 6.1 μM.

Polyketides and nitrogenous metabolites from the endophytic fungus Phomopsis sp. D15a2a

Three new polyketides, phomopones A?C (1–3), one new cyclic tetrapeptide, 18-hydroxydihydrotentoxin (4), and a new amide, 6-hydroxyenamidin (5) together with a known derivative, enamindin (6) were obtained from the endophytic fungus Phomopsis sp. D15a2a i

Anti-Cryptococcus Phenalenones and Cyclic Tetrapeptides from Auxarthron pseudauxarthron

Auxarthrones A-E (1-5), five new phenalenones, and two new naturally occurring cyclic tetrapeptides, auxarthrides A (7) and B (8), were obtained from three different solvent extracts of cultures of the coprophilous fungus Auxarthron pseudauxarthron. Auxarthrones C (3) and E (5) possess an unusual 7a,8-dihydrocyclopenta[a]phenalene-7,9-dione ring system that has not been previously observed in natural products. Formation of 1-5 was found to be dependent on the solvent used for culture extraction. The structures of these new compounds were elucidated primarily by analysis of NMR and MS data. Auxarthrone A (1) was obtained as a mixture of chromatographically inseparable racemic diastereomers (1a and 1b) that cocrystallized, enabling confirmation of their structures by X-ray crystallography. The absolute configurations of 7 and 8 were assigned by analysis of their acid hydrolysates using Marfey's method. Compound 1 displayed moderate antifungal activity against Cryptococcus neoformans and Candida albicans, but did not affect human cancer cell lines.
