Abstract

The first total synthesis of the antimicrobial natural product lynamicin D has been developed using a Suzuki coupling to construct the bisindole pyrrole skeleton. An evaluation of the biological activity of lynamicin D reveals that it has a minor effect on cell viability but it can modulate splicing of pre-mRNAs. We provide evidence that this effect is mainly due to the ability of lynamicin D to alter the levels of SRPK1, the key kinase involved in both constitutive and alternative splicing.
