Abstract

The search for metabolites of Kibdelosporangium sp. AK-AA56 resulted in the discovery of novel N-phenylacetylated peptides, JBIR-78 (1) and JBIR-95 (2). Compounds 1 and 2 were established to be N-phenylacetylated heptapeptides by extensive NMR and HRESIMS analyses. The absolute configuration of the standard amino acids including a cysteic acid moiety was determined using Marfey's method on the acid hydrolysates of 1 and 2. The relative and absolute configurations of a nonstandard amino acid, β-hydroxyleucine, were elucidated using the J-based and modified Mosher's methods, respectively. In an antimicrobial test, 1 showed antibacterial activity against Micrococcus luteus.
