- Adiponectin-Secretion-Promoting Cyclic Peptide-Polyketide Hybrids from a Halophyte-Associated Fungus, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides JS0417
-
Three new cyclic peptide-polyketide hybrids (1-3) and two new chaetiacandin-type polyketides (4 and 5) along with nine known compounds were isolated from cultures of a halophyte-associated fungus, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides JS0417. Spectroscopic analysis revealed that 1-3 were cyclic depsipeptides where 3,5,11-trihydroxy-2,6-dimethyldodecanoic acid was linked to two amino acids through amide and ester bonds to form a 12-membered ring. Relative and absolute configurations for the peptides were determined with spectroscopic analysis and chemical reactions. The cyclic depsipeptides 2 and 6 were determined to act as strong adiponectin-secretion-promoting modulators with potential to treat metabolic diseases associated with hypoadiponectinemia. Notably, a known compound, tryptophol, significantly inhibited PGE2synthesis and also promoted adiponectin secretion, exhibiting a similar biological activity profile to aspirin, but with greater potency. The presence of an isoleucine moiety and non-glycosylation may be important for biological activity of the cyclic peptide-polyketide hybrids, and non-methoxylation of the side chain may influence activity of the indole derivatives.

- Unique polyhalogenated peptides from the marine sponge Ircinia sp.
-
Two new bromopyrrole peptides, haloirciniamide A (1) and seribunamide A (2), have been isolated from an Indonesian marine sponge of the genus Ircinia collected in the Thousand Islands (Indonesia). The planar structure of both compounds was assigned on the basis of extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The absolute configuration of the amino acid residues in 1 and 2 was determined by the application of Marfey's method. Compound 1 is the first dibromopyrrole cyclopeptide having a chlorohistidine ring, while compound 2 is a rare peptide possessing a tribromopyrrole ring. Both compounds failed to show significant cytotoxicity against four human tumor cell lines, and neither compound was able to inhibit the enzyme topoisomerase I or impair the interaction between programmed cell death protein PD1 and its ligand, PDL1.

- Discovery of Amantamide, a Selective CXCR7 Agonist from Marine Cyanobacteria
-
CXCR7 plays an emerging role in several physiological processes. A linear peptide, amantamide (1), was isolated from marine cyanobacteria, and the structure was determined by NMR and mass spectrometry. The total synthesis was achieved by solid-phase method. After screening two biological target libraries, 1 was identified as a selective CXCR7 agonist. The selective activation of CXCR7 by 1 could provide the basis for developing CXCR7-targeted therapeutics and deciphering the role of CXCR7 in different diseases.

- 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.

- Janadolide, a Cyclic Polyketide-Peptide Hybrid Possessing a tert-Butyl Group from an Okeania sp. Marine Cyanobacterium
-
Janadolide, a new cyclic polyketide-peptide hybrid possessing a tert-butyl group, was isolated from an Okeania sp. marine cyanobacterium. The gross structure was elucidated by spectroscopic analyses, and the absolute configurations of the amino acid moieties were determined by acid hydrolysis and chiral-phase HPLC analyses. The absolute configuration of the two stereogenic centers in the polyketide moiety was elucidated based on a combination of degradation reactions and spectroscopic analyses including the phenyl-glycine methyl ester method. Janadolide showed potent antitrypanosomal activity with an IC50 value of 47 nM without cytotoxicity against human cells at 10 μM.

- A new cyclic hexapeptide and a new isocoumarin derivative from the marine sponge-associated fungus Aspergillus similanensis KUFA 0013
-
A new isocoumarin derivative, similanpyrone C (1), a new cyclohexapeptide, similanamide (2), and a new pyripyropene derivative, named pyripyropene T (3) were isolated from the ethyl acetate extract of the culture of the marine sponge-associated fungus Aspergillus similanensis KUFA 0013. The structures of the compounds were established based on 1D and 2D NMR spectral analysis, and in the case of compound 2 the stereochemistry of its amino acid constituents was determined by chiral HPLC analysis of the hydrolysate by co-injection with the D and L amino acids standards. Compounds 2 and 3 were evaluated for their in vitro growth inhibitory activity against MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma), NCI-H460 (non-small cell lung cancer) and A373 (melanoma) cell lines, as well as antibacterial activity against reference strains and the environmental multidrug-resistant isolates (MRS and VRE). Only compound 2 exhibited weak activity against the three cancer cell lines, and neither of them showed antibacterial activity.

- Ohmyungsamycins A and B: Cytotoxic and antimicrobial cyclic peptides produced by Streptomyces sp. from a volcanic island
-
Ohmyungsamycins A and B (1 and 2), which are new cyclic peptides, were isolated from a marine bacterial strain belonging to the Streptomyces genus collected from a sand beach on Jeju, a volcanic island in the Republic of Korea. Based on the interpretation of the NMR, UV, and IR spectroscopic and MS data, the planar structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated as cyclic depsipeptides bearing unusual amino acid units, including N-methyl-4-methoxytrytophan, β-hydroxyphenylalanine, and N,N-dimethylvaline. The absolute configurations of the α-carbons of the amino acid residues were determined using the advanced Marfey's method. The configurations of the additional stereogenic centers at the β-carbons of the threonine, N-methylthreonine, and β-hydroxyphenylalanine units were assigned by GITC (2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl- β-d-glucopyranosyl isothiocyanate) derivatization and the modified Mosher's method. We have developed a new method utilizing PGME (phenylglycine methyl ester) derivatization coupled with chromatographic analysis to determine the absolute configuration of N,N-dimethylvaline. Our first successful establishment of the absolute configuration of N,N-dimethylvaline using PGME will provide a general and convenient analytical method for determining the absolute configurations of amino acids with fully substituted amine groups. Ohmyungsamycins A and B showed significant inhibitory activities against diverse cancer cells as well as antibacterial effects.

- Isolation, structure elucidation and total synthesis of lajollamide a from the marine fungus Asteromyces cruciatus
-
The marine-derived filamentous fungus Asteromyces cruciatus 763, obtained off the coast of La Jolla, San Diego, USA, yielded the new pentapeptide lajollamide A (1), along with the known compounds regiolone (2), hyalodendrin (3), gliovictin (4), 1N-norgliovicitin (5), and bis-N-norgliovictin (6). The planar structure of lajollamide A (1) was determined by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in combination with mass spectrometry. The absolute configuration of lajollamide A (1) was unambiguously solved by total synthesis which provided three additional diastereomers of 1 and also revealed that an unexpected acid-mediated partial racemization (2:1) of the L-leucine and L-N-Me-leucine residues occurred during the chemical degradation process. The biological activities of the isolated metabolites, in particular their antimicrobial properties, were investigated in a series of assay systems.

- Biosynthetic origin of the 3-amino-2,5,7,8-tetrahydroxy-10-methylundecanoic acid moiety and absolute configuration of pahayokolides A and B
-
Pahayokolides A (1) and B (2) are cyclic undecapeptides that were isolated from the cyanobacterium Lyngbya sp. They contain the unusual α-hydroxy-β-amino acid 3-amino-2,5,7,8-tetrahydroxy-10- methylundecanoic acid (Athmu). The absolute configurations of the amino acids of the pahayokolides, except for the four oxygen-bearing stereocenters of Athmu, have been determined by Marphy's method. Incorporation of labeled leucine and acetate precursors into the pahayokolides has established that Athmu is derived from a leucine or α-keto isocaproic acid starter unit, which is further extended with three acetate units.

- Cyclodepsipeptides, sesquiterpenoids, and other cytotoxic metabolites from the filamentous fungus Trichothecium sp. (MSX 51320)
-
Two new cyclodepsipeptides (1 and 2), two new sesquiterpenoids (3 and 4), and the known compounds guangomide A (5), roseotoxin S, and three simple trichothecenes were isolated from the cytotoxic organic extract of a terrestrial filamentous fungus, Trichothecium sp. The structures were determined using NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Absolute configurations of the cyclodepsipeptides were established by employing chiral HPLC, while the relative configurations of 3 and 4 were determined via NOESY data. The isolation of guangomide A was of particular interest, since it was reported previously from a marine-derived fungus.

- Cytotoxic halogenated macrolides and modified peptides from the apratoxin-producing marine cyanobacterium Lyngbya bouillonii from Guam
-
Collections of the marine cyanobacterium Lyngbya bouillonii from shallow patch reefs in Apra Harbor, Guam, afforded three hitherto undescribed analogues of the glycosidic macrolide lyngbyaloside, namely, 2-epi-lyngbyaloside (1) and the regioisomeric 18E- and 18Z-lyngbyalosides C (2 and 3). Concurrently we discovered two new analogues of the cytoskeletal actin-disrupting lyngbyabellins, 27-deoxylyngbyabellin A (4) and lyngbyabellin J (5), a novel macrolide of the laingolide family, laingolide B (6), and a linear modified peptide, lyngbyapeptin D (7), along with known lyngbyabellins A and B, lyngbyapeptin A, and lyngbyaloside. The structures of 1-7 were elucidated by a combination of NMR spectroscopic and mass spectrometric analysis. Compounds 1-6 were either brominated (1-3) or chlorinated (4-6), consistent with halogenation being a hallmark of many marine natural products. All extracts derived from these L. bouillonii collections were highly cytotoxic due to the presence of apratoxin A or apratoxin C. Compounds 1-5 showed weak to moderate cytotoxicity to HT29 colorectal adenocarcinoma and HeLa cervical carcinoma cells.
