Abstract

A new nonribosomal peptide, nyuzenamide C (1), was discovered from riverine sediment-derived Streptomyces sp. DM14. Comprehensive analysis of the spectroscopic data of nyuzenamide C (1) revealed that 1 has a bicyclic backbone composed of six common amino acid residues (Asn, Leu, Pro, Gly, Val, and Thr) and four nonproteinogenic amino acid units, including hydroxyglycine, β-hydroxyphenylalanine, p-hydroxyphenylglycine, and 3,β-dihydroxytyrosine, along with 1,2-epoxypropyl cinnamic acid. The absolute configuration of 1 was proposed by J-based configuration analysis, the advanced Marfey's method, quantum mechanics-based DP4 calculations, and bioinformatic analysis of its nonribosomal peptide synthetase biosynthetic gene cluster. Nyuzenamide C (1) displayed antiangiogenic activity in human umbilical vein endothelial cells and induced Quinone Reductase in murine Hepa-1c1c7 cells.
