Abstract
Sporangimicins A–D (1–4), four anomeric pairs of diacyl disaccharides that represent a new metabolite class, were discovered from the culture extract of an actinomycete Pseudosporangium sp. RD061809. Compounds 1–4 caused peak separation in the HPLC chromatogram and partial duplication of the NMR resonances by anomeric interconversion of a maltose core modified at the two sugar 6-positions with an isobutanoyl and a methyl-branched long-chain dienoyl groups. A highlight of the structure elucidation was application of Ohrui-Akasaka’s method to a chromatographically inseparable mixture of 3 and 4, which proved the composition ratio of 3 and 4 to be 82:18 and the R/S ratio at the anteiso-methyl bearing chiral center in 3 to be 66:34. Compounds 1–4 showed antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria and modest cytotoxicity toward P388 murine leukemia cells.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Antibiotics seeks to promote research on antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances and publishes Articles, Review Articles, Brief Communication, Correspondence and other specially commissioned reports. The Journal of Antibiotics accepts papers on biochemical, chemical, microbiological and pharmacological studies. However, studies regarding human therapy do not fall under the journal’s scope. Contributions regarding recently discovered antibiotics and biologically active microbial products are particularly encouraged. Topics of particular interest within the journal''s scope include, but are not limited to, those listed below:
Discovery of new antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances
Production, isolation, characterization, structural elucidation, chemical synthesis and derivatization, biological activities, mechanisms of action, and structure-activity relationships of antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances
Biosynthesis, bioconversion, taxonomy and genetic studies on producing microorganisms, as well as improvement of production of antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances
Novel physical, chemical, biochemical, microbiological or pharmacological methods for detection, assay, determination, structural elucidation and evaluation of antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances
Newly found properties, mechanisms of action and resistance-development of antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances.
