A novel C17 resorcylic acid was synthesized by a structure-guided Vitis vinifera stilbene synthase (STS) mutant, in which threonine 197 was replaced with glycine (T197G). Altering the architecture of the coumaroyl binding and cyclization pocket of the enzyme led to the attachment of an extra acetyl unit, derived from malonyl-CoA, to p-coumaroyl-CoA. The resulting novel pentaketide can be produced strictly by STS-like enzymes and not by Chalcone synthase-like type III polyketide synthases; due to the unique thioesterase like activity of STS-like enzymes. We utilized a liquid chromatography mass spectrometry-based data analysis approach to directly compare the reaction products of the mutant and wild type STS. The findings suggest an easy to employ platform for precursor-directed biosynthesis and identification of unnatural polyketides by structure-guided mutation of STS-like enzymes.

Prenylated flavonoids found in hops and beer, i.e., prenylchalcones and prenylflavanones, were examined for their ability to inhibit in vitro oxidation of human low-density lipoprotein (LDL). The oxidation of LDL was assessed by the formation of conjugate

Thirty dihydroflavonol derivatives (D1–D30) were designed and synthesized, meanwhile the synthesized compounds were characterized on the basis of spectroscopic analyzes. Their inhibitory activity against the pro-inflammatory inducible interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated murine RAW 264.7 macrophages were evaluated and showed various efficiency. Compounds D1–D30 showed no toxic effects on RAW 264.7 cells at the concentration 20 μM; among them, compounds D9, D13, and D19 exhibited best anti-inflammatory activity through decreasing IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α. Furthermore, their structure–activity relationships were discussed preliminarily.
