Callyaerins A–F and H, new cytotoxic cyclic peptides from the Indonesian marine sponge Callyspongia aerizusa
摘要:
Bioassay guided fractionation of the EtOAc fraction of the sponge Callyspongia aerizusa yielded seven new cytotoxic cyclic peptides callyaerins A-F (1-6) and H (8). Their structures were determined using extensive 1D (H-1, C-13 and DEPT) and 2D (COSY, HMQC, HMBC, TOCSY, and ROESY) NMR and mass spectral (ESI and HRESI-TOF) data. All compounds were cyclic peptides containing ring systems of 5-9 amino acids and side chains of 2-5 amino acids in length. An unusual (Z)-2,3-diaminoacrylic acid unit provided the template for ring closure and afforded the linkage to the peptidic side chain which was always initiated with a proline moiety. All peptides contained three or more proline residues and the remaining residues were predominantly hydrophobic residues with all amino acids present in the L form. Callyaerins A-F (1-6) and H (8) showed biological activity in antibacterial assays and in various cytotoxicity assays employing different tumour cell-lines (L5178Y, HeLa, and PC12). Callyaerins E (5) and H (8) exhibited strong activity against the L5178Y cell line with ED50 values of 0.39 and 0.48 mu M, respectively. On the other hand, callyaerin A (1) showed strong inhibitory properties towards C. albicans. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
found biosynthetic genes encoding a new lasso peptide in the genome sequence of a soil bacterium, Streptomyces sp. KCB13F003 isolated from Ulleung Island (a small volcanic island), Korea. The production and purification of the encoded peptide, named ulleungdin, were achieved by optimizing the culture conditions followed by LC-MS-targeted isolation. Structure elucidation was performed by NMR spectroscopic
Cystomanamides A-D were isolated as novel natural product scaffolds from Cystobacter fuscus MCy9118, and their structures were established by spectroscopic techniques including 2D NMR, LC-SPE-NMR/-MS, and HR-MS. The cystomanamides contain beta-hydroxy amino acids along with 3-amino-9-methyldecanoic acid that is N-glycosylated in cystomanamide C and D. The gene cluster for cystomanamide biosynthesis was identified by gene disruption as PKS/NRPS hybrid incorporating an iso-fatty acid as starter unit and including a reductive amination step at the interface of the PKS and NRPS modules.

Microseiramide (1), a cyclic heptapeptide, was isolated from a sample of the freshwater cyanobacterium Microseira sp. UIC 10445 collected in a shallow lake in Northern Indiana. Taxonomic identification of UIC 10445 was performed by a combination of morphological and phylogenetic characterization. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that UIC 10445 was a member of the recently described genus Microseira, which is phylogenetically distinct from the morphologically similar genera, Moorea and Lyngbya. The planar structure of microseiramide (1) was determined by extensive 1D and 2D NMR experiments as well as HRESIMS analysis. The absolute configurations of amino acid residues were determined using acid hydrolysis followed by the advanced Marfey's analysis. Microseiramide (1) is the first cyclic peptide reported from a Microseira sp., and the structure of microseiramide (1) is distinct from the previously known metabolites from cyanobacteria of the genera Moorea and Lyngbya.
