Abstract
Three new 22-membered polyol macrolides, dactylides A-C (1-3), were isolated from Dactylosporangium aurantiacum ATCC 23491 employing repeated chromatographic separations, and their structures were established based on detailed analysis of NMR and MS data. The relative configurations at the stereocenters were established via vicinal 1H-1H coupling constants, NOE correlations, and by application of Kishi's universal NMR database. In order to get insights into the biosynthetic pathway of 1-3, the genome sequence of the producer strain D. aurantiacum was obtained and the putative biosynthetic gene cluster encoding their biosynthesis was identified through bioinformatic analysis using antiSMASH. Compounds 1-3 showed significant in-vitro antimycobacterial and cytotoxic activity.
