Abstract

Three lipopeptides were isolated by bioactivity-guided fractionation from the fermentation broth of Bacillus mojavensis B0621A. A new iturinic lipopeptide, named mojavensin A, was tentatively characterized by 1D, 2D NMR and MS spectroscopy, Marfey's method containing a novel peptide backbone of L-Asn₁, D-Tyr₂, D-Asn₃, L-Gln₄, L-Pro₅, D-Asn₆, L-Asn₇ and an anteiso-type of the saturated β-fatty acid side chain. Compound 2 and 3 were tentatively identified as iso-C16 fengycin B and anteiso-C17 fengycin B, respectively. These lipopeptides displayed dose-dependent antifungal activity against a broad spectra of phytopathogens and were weakly antagonistic to Staphylococcus aureus. Moreover, they all revealed cytotoxic activities against the human leukemia (HL-60) cell line. Mojavensin A, iso-C16 fengycin B, and anteiso-C17 fengycin B inhibited the growth of HL-60 with IC₅₀ of 100, 100 and 1.6 μM, respectively.
