Abstract
Genome mining of Paraneptunicella aestuarii NBU2194 resulted in the identification of a family of 17-membered macrolides, neptunizhulides A–F. Their structures were elucidated by comprehensive spectroscopic data analysis. Stereochemical assignments of the neptunizhulides were determined by J-based configuration analysis, ROESY NMR, Mosher’s ester derivatization, and bioinformatic predictions. Bioinformatic analysis and a 15N-serine labeling experiment resulted in the identification of a putative trans-acyltransferase polyketide synthase (trans-AT PKS) biosynthetic gene cluster, and a biosynthetic pathway is proposed.
期刊介绍:
Organic Letters invites original reports of fundamental research in all branches of the theory and practice of organic, physical organic, organometallic,medicinal, and bioorganic chemistry. Organic Letters provides rapid disclosure of the key elements of significant studies that are of interest to a large portion of the organic community. In selecting manuscripts for publication, the Editors place emphasis on the originality, quality and wide interest of the work. Authors should provide enough background information to place the new disclosure in context and to justify the rapid publication format. Back-to-back Letters will be considered. Full details should be reserved for an Article, which should appear in due course.
