Nocardimicins A, B, C, D, E, and F, Siderophores with Muscarinic M3 Receptor Inhibiting Activity from Nocardia sp. TP-A0674
摘要:
In the screening for muscarinic M3 receptor binding inhibitors from microbial secondary metabolites, the extract of Nocardia sp. TP-A0674 was found to be highly active. Bioassay-guided fractionation of it led to the isolation of six new siderophores, nocardimicins A (1), B (2), C (3), D (4), E (5), and F (6), as active principles. Their chemical structures were determined by spectroscopic and degradation analysis. Of these congeners, nocardimicin B (2) inhibited the binding of tritium-labeled N-methylscopolamine to the muscarinic M3 receptor most potently with a K-i value of 0.13 mu M. Compound 2 showed more selective activity to M3 and M4 receptors than other subtypes.
