Structure and antibacterial activities of new cyclic peptide antibiotics, pargamicins B, C and D, from Amycolatopsis sp. ML1-hF4 

Valgamicin C, a novel cyclic depsipeptide containing the unusual amino acid cleonine, and related valgamicins A, T and V produced by Amycolatopsis sp. ML1-hF4

In the course of optimizing pargamicin A production in Amycolatopsis sp. ML1-hF4, we discovered novel cyclic depsipeptide compounds in the broth and designated them valgamicins A, C, T and V. The

Total Synthesis of Pargamicin A.

This work enables the synthesis of pargamicin congeners for the development of structure-activity relationships and informs strategies for accessing other sterically congested piperazic acid-containing natural products.

Amycolasporins and Dibenzoyls from Lichen-Associated Amycolatopsis hippodromi and Their Antibacterial and Anti-inflammatory Activities.

Amycolasporin C (3) and the known dibenzoyl (7) attenuated the production of NO due to the suppression of the expression of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells in a dose-dependent manner.

Secondary Metabolites of Actinomycetes and their Antibacterial, Antifungal and Antiviral Properties

The highest potency among selected antifungal compounds is exhibited by enduspeptide B, neomaclafungins A-I and kribelloside D, while ahmpatinin iBu, antimycin A1a, and pentapeptide 4862F are recognized as the strongest antiviral agents.

Suertides A–C: selective antibacterial cyclic hexapeptides from Amycolatopsis sp. MST-135876v3

A previously unreported dichlorinated cyclic hexapeptide, suertide A, featuring an unprecedented pair of adjacent 5/6-chlorotryptophan residues is discovered in soil collected from the riverbank of El Pont de Suert, Catalonia, Spain.

Piperazic acid-containing natural products: structures and biosynthesis.

Piperazic acid is a cyclic hydrazine and a non-proteinogenic amino acid found in diverse non-ribosomal peptide (NRP) and hybrid NRP-polyketide (PK) structures.

One pathway, two cyclic pentapeptides: heterologous expression of BE-18257 A-C and pentaminomycins A-E from Streptomyces cacaoi CA-170360

Cloned and confirmed the heterologous expression of this biosynthetic gene cluster, demonstrating that each of the nonribosomal peptide synthetases present in the cluster is involved in the biosynthesis of each group of cyclopeptides.
