Abstract
Chemical investigation of the cyanobacterium Dolichospermum sp. NIES-1697 afforded nostosin G (1), a linear tripeptide, spiroidesin B (2), and two known compounds, anabaenopeptins I (3) and J (4). Planar structures and absolute configurations for 1 and 2 were determined by 2D NMR, HRMS, Marfey's methodology, chiral-phase HPLC, and enzymatic degradation. Nostosin G (1) is a unique example of a linear peptide containing three subunits, 4-hydroxyphenyllactic acid (Hpla), homotyrosine (Hty), and argininal, with potent trypsin inhibitory properties. The biosynthetic gene clusters for nostosin G (1) and spiroidesin B (2) were investigated based on the genome sequence of Dolichospermum sp. NIES-1697.
