Abstract
Five new viridogriseins B-F were isolated from Streptomyces niveoruber, along with viridogrisein and griseoviridin which belong to streptogramin family antibiotics. A combination of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis and the advanced Marfey's method elucidated the structures of viridogriseins B-F, each featuring distinct constituent amino acids. Consistent with other streptogramin family antibiotics, these viridogrisein analogs exhibited potent antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. Furthermore, equimolar mixtures of each viridogrisein analog and griseoviridin inhibited the growth of S. aureus more potently than each analog treatment alone. Finally, an in vitro functional analysis of SgvY, encoded in the viridogrisein biosynthetic gene cluster, revealed that SgvY detoxifies viridogrisein against S. aureus by linearization. Considering that viridogrisein is not autotoxic to S. niveoruber, SgvY likely contributes to the self-resistance system against viridogrisein in S. niveoruber.
