Production of anticancer polyenes through precursor-directed biosynthesis.
The biosynthesis of the pyrrolyl moiety of the fungal metabolite rumbrin originates from pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid. In an effort to produce novel derivatives with enhanced biological activity a series of substituted pyrrole-2-carboxylates were synthesised and incubated with the producing organism, Auxarthron umbrinum. Several 4-halo-pyrrole-2-carboxylic acids were incorporated into the metaboli...
متن کاملProduction of novel rapamycin analogs by precursor-directed biosynthesis.
The natural product rapamycin, produced during fermentation by Streptomyces hygroscopicus, is known for its potent antifungal, immunosuppressive, and anticancer activities. During rapamycin biosynthesis, the amino acid l-pipecolate is incorporated into the rapamycin molecule. We investigated the use of precursor-directed biosynthesis to create new rapamycin analogs by substitution of unusual l-...
متن کاملPrecursor directed biosynthesis of aureobasidins.
The antifungal antibiotic aureobasidin A (AbA) is a cyclic depsipeptide composed of eight amino acids and a hydroxy acid. New Ab analogs were produced by feeding various amino acids to Aureobasidium pullulans R 106 c-712 in a chemically-defined medium containing glucose and ammonium sulfate. The constituent amino acids of AbA at positions 3 (L-phenylalanine), 4 (N-methyl-L-phenylalanine), 5 (L-...
متن کاملCyclosporins--new analogues by precursor directed biosynthesis.
Cyclosporin A (ciclosporin), a potent and clinically important immunosuppressive drug (Sandimmun), represents the main component of a group of over 25 closely related, cyclic undecapeptides produced by the fungus Tolypocladium inflatum. By feeding experiments using DL-alpha-allylglycine as precursor, specific incorporation in position 2 was attained leading to [Allylgly2]cyclosporin A. Exogenou...
متن کاملNovel soraphens from precursor directed biosynthesis.
Six novel halogenated soraphen analogues have been isolated from the wild-type producing organism using precursor directed biosyntheses; the best 'delivery vehicle' for the novel starter acids was cinnamate but ortho substituents were not tolerated by the soraphen PKS.
