Structure and Biosynthesis of Perochalasins A-C, Open-Chain Merocytochalasans Produced by the Marine-Derived Fungus Peroneutypa sp. M16. JOURNAL OF NATURAL PRODUCTS 2024; 87:2204-2215. [PMID: 39150723 PMCID: PMC11443529 DOI: 10.1021/acs.jnatprod.4c00516] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2024] [Revised: 07/16/2024] [Accepted: 08/02/2024] [Indexed: 08/17/2024]
Abstract
Novel open-chain merocytochalasans, perochalasins A-C (1-3), containing an unusual N-O six-membered heterocyclic moiety, were isolated from cultures of the marine-derived Peroneutypa sp. M16 fungus, along with cytochalasin Z27 (4), cytochalasin Z28 (5), [12]-cytochalasin (6), and phenochalasin B (7). The structures of compounds 1-3 were established by analysis of the spectroscopic data. Full genome sequencing of Peroneutypa sp. M16 enabled the identification of a cytochalasan biosynthetic gene cluster and a proposal for the biosynthetic assembly of perochalasins. The proposal is supported by the nonenzymatic conversion of phenochalasin B (7) into 1-3, based on isotope-labeled hydroxylamine (15NH2OH and ND2OD) feeding studies in vivo and in vitro. In contrast to other merocytochalasans, these are the first cytochalasans confirmed to arise via nucleophilic addition and at a distinct location from the reactive macrocycle olefin, potentially expanding further the range of merocytochalasans to be discovered or engineered. Cytochalasin Z27 (4) exhibited antiplasmodial activities in the low micromolar range against the chloroquine-sensitive Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 strain as well as against resistant strains of the parasite (Dd2, TM90C6B, and 3D7r_MMV848).

Abstract
Two new cytochalasans, marcytoglobosins A (1) and B (2) were isolated from the marine sponge associated fungus Chaetomium globosum 162105, along with six known compounds (3-8). The complete structures of two new compounds were determined based on 1D/2D NMR and HR-MS spectroscopic analyses coupled with ECD calculations. All eight isolates were evaluated for their antibacterial activity. Among them, compounds 3-8 displayed antibacterial effects against Staphylococcus epidermidis, Bacillus thuringiensis, Pseudomonas syringae pv. Actinidiae, Vibrio alginolyticus, and Edwardsiella piscicida with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values ranging from 10 to 25 μg/mL.

Abstract
Four new leucine-derived cytochalasans, possessing a 5,6,5,8-ring (1) and a 5,6,11-ring core (2-4), were isolated from a cultivated endophytic fungus Xylaria sp. strain WH2D4 (Xylariaceae). This fungus was isolated from leaves of the neotropical tree species Palicourea elata (Sw.) Borhidi (Rubiaceae) collected in Costa Rica. The chemical structures were determined by employing IR, MS as well as 1D- and 2D-NMR experiments. The stereochemistry at C-15 of compound 4 was determined by quantum calculations. The isolated compounds did not affect germination and growth of Trichoderma reesei and the opportunistic human fungal pathogen T. longibrachiatum.

Abstract
Two new cytochalasans with a rare 6/6/5/5/7 pentacyclic ring system, named chaetoconvosins C-D (1: -2: ), together with two known congeners (3: -4: ), were isolated from the fermentation of an endophytic fungus, Chaetomium sp. SG-01, harbored in the fibrous roots of Schisandra glaucescens Diels. Their structures including the absolute configuration were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic (HRESIMS, NMR, and ECD) and X-ray crystallographic analyses. The TRAIL-resistance-overcoming activity of 1: -4: in a TRAIL-resistant HT29 colorectal cancer cell line was evaluated, which revealed that co-treatment of 1: -4: at 50 µM with TRAIL (150 ng/mL) reduced the HT29 cell viability by 19.0%, 24.1%, 17.9%, and 15.5%, respectively, compared to treatment with 1: -4: alone.

Abstract
Plant-associated fungi (endophytic fungi) are a biodiversity-rich group of microorganisms that are normally found asymptomatically within plant tissues or in the intercellular spaces. Endophytic fungi promote the growth of host plants by directly producing secondary metabolites, which enhances the plant's resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses. Additionally, they are capable of biosynthesizing medically important "phytochemicals" that were initially thought to be produced only by the host plant. In this review, we summarized some compounds from endophyte fungi with novel structures and diverse biological activities published between 2011 and 2021, with a focus on the origin of endophytic fungi, the structural and biological activity of the compounds they produce, and special attention paid to the exploration of pharmacological activities and mechanisms of action of certain compounds. This review revealed that endophytic fungi had high potential to be harnessed as an alternative source of secondary metabolites for pharmacological studies.

Abstract
Covering: 2015 up to the end of 2020Even in the golden age of NMR, the number of natural products being incorrectly assigned is becoming larger every day. The use of quantum NMR calculations coupled with sophisticated data analysis provides ideal complementary tools to facilitate the elucidation process in challenging cases. Among the current computational methodologies to perform this task, the DP4+ probability is a popular and widely used method. This updated version of Goodman's DP4 synergistically combines NMR calculations at higher levels of theory with the Bayesian analysis of both scaled and unscaled data. Since its publication in late 2015, the use of DP4+ to solve controversial natural products has substantially grown, with several predictions being confirmed by total synthesis. To date, the structures of more than 200 natural products were determined with the aid of DP4+. However, all that glitters is not gold. Besides its intrinsic limitations, on many occasions it has been improperly used with potentially important consequences on the quality of the assignment. Herein we present a critical revision on how the scientific community has been using DP4+, exploring the strengths of the method and how to obtain optimal results from it. We also analyze the weaknesses of DP4+, and the paths to by-pass them to maximize the confidence in the structural elucidation.
