Abstract
Two pairs of geometrical isomers – cuevaenes A (1) and C (3) as well as cuevaenes D (4) and E (5) – and cuevaene B (2) were isolated from gdmAI-disrupted Streptomyces sp. LZ35. The constitution of cuevaene C (3) was found to be identical to cuevaene A (1) by means of NMR spectroscopy and high resolution mass spectrometry. However, the relative configurations of the triene side chain moieties were determined to be different. It was established on the basis of spectroscopic data that cuevaenes D (4) and E (5) are amides and geometrical isomers. Cuevaenes A–C (1–3) displayed moderate activity against Gram-positive bacteria (e.g., Bacillus subtilis strain ATCC 11060) and modest activity against fungi (e.g., Fusarium verticillioides strain S68 and Rhizoctonia solani strain GXE4). However, cuevaenes D (4) and E (5) showed no inhibitory activity against any of the tested microbes.
