Abstract
To investigate the potential for secondary metabolite biosynthesis by Streptomyces species, we employed a coculture method to discover natural bioactive products and identified specific antibacterial activity from a combined-culture of Streptomyces hygroscopicus HOK021 and Tsukamurella pulmonis TP-B0596. Molecular networking using ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS) data revealed a specific clade of metabolites in this combined-culture that were not detected in both monocultures. Using the chemical profiles, a previously unidentified conjugate between FabF inhibitor and catechol-type siderophore was successfully identified and named harundomycin A. Harundomycin A was a conjugate between the 2,4-dihydroxy-3-aminobenzoate moiety of platensimycin and N,N'-bis(2,3-dihydroxybenzoyl)-O-seryl-cysteine (bisDHBA-Ser-Cys) with a thioester linkage. Along with the production of harundomycin A, platensimycin, its thiocarboxylic acid form thioplatensimycin, enterobactin, and its degradation product N,N'-bis(2,3-dihydroxybenzoyl)-O-l-seryl-dehydroalanine (bisDHBA-Ser-Dha) were also induced in the combined-culture. Genomic data of S. hygroscopicus HOK021 and T. pulmonis TP-B0596 indicated that strain HOK021 possessed biosynthetic gene clusters for both platensimycin and enterobactin, and thereby revealed that T. pulmonis stimulates HOK021 and acts as an inducer of both of these metabolites. Although the harundomycin A was modified by bulky bisDHBA-Ser-Cys, responsible for the binding to the target molecule FabF, it showed a similar antibacterial spectrum to platensimycin, including against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and vancomycin-resistant enterococci, suggesting that the pharmacophore is platensimycin. Additionally, Chrome Azurol S assay showed that harundomycin A possesses ferric iron-chelating activity comparable to that of enterobactin. Our study demonstrated the transformation of existing natural products to bifunctional molecules driven by bacterial interaction.

Abstract
Zelkovamycins F and G (1 and 2), two new natural cyclic octapeptides possessing the unprecedented nonproteinogenic amino acid residues l-α-methyl-threonine and l-α-methyl-allo-threonine, respectively, along with four new analogues, zelkovamycins H-K (3-6), were identified from the endophytic Kitasatospora sp. CPCC 204717. Their structures were elucidated by detailed analysis of NMR and HRESIMS/MS spectroscopic data. The configurations of amino acid residues were determined by Marfey's analysis combined with NMR calculations. Compounds 1, 2, and 4 showed potent antibacterial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis. The structure-activity relationship study revealed that the 2-methyl-3-oxobutyrine and sarcosine residues played important roles in their antibacterial activities. Zelkovamycin (7) and zelkovamycin E (8) exhibited significant antiviral activity against the hepatitis C virus.

Abstract
Flexible marine natural products (MNPs), such as eribulin and bryostatin, play an important role in the development of modern marine drugs. However, due to the multiple chiral centers and geometrical uncertainty of flexible systems, configuration determinations of flexible MNPs face great challenges, which, in turn, have led to obstacles in druggability research. To resolve this issue, the comprehensive use of multiple methods is necessary. Additionally, configuration assignment methods, such as X-ray single-crystal diffraction (crystalline derivatives, crystallization chaperones, and crystalline sponges), NMR-based methods (JBCA and Mosher’s method), circular dichroism-based methods (ECCD and ICD), quantum computational chemistry-based methods (NMR calculations, ECD calculations, and VCD calculations), and chemical transformation-based methods should be summarized. This paper reviews the basic principles, characteristics, and applicability of the methods mentioned above as well as application examples to broaden the research and applications of these methods and to provide a reference for the configuration determinations of flexible MNPs.

Abstract
Chemical investigations of a marine sponge-associated Bacillus revealed six new imidazolium-containing compounds, bacillimidazoles A-F (1-6). Previous reports of related imidazolium-containing natural products are rare. Initially unveiled by timsTOF (trapped ion mobility spectrometry) MS data, extensive HRMS and 1D and 2D NMR analyses enabled the structural elucidation of 1-6. In addition, a plausible biosynthetic pathway to bacillimidazoles is proposed based on isotopic labeling experiments and invokes the highly reactive glycolytic adduct 2,3-butanedione. Combined, the results of structure elucidation efforts, isotopic labeling studies and bioinformatics suggest that 1-6 result from a fascinating intersection of primary and secondary metabolic pathways in Bacillus sp. WMMC1349. Antimicrobial assays revealed that, of 1-6, only compound six displayed discernible antibacterial activity, despite the close structural similarities shared by all six natural products.

Abstract
Myxobacteria are a prolific source of structurally diverse natural products, and one of the best-studied myxobacterial products is the siderophore myxochelin. Herein, we report two new compounds, myxochelins N (1) and O (2), that are nicotinic paralogs of myxochelin A, from the terrestrial myxobacterium Archangium sp. SDU34; 2 is functionalized with a rare 2-oxazolidinone. A precursor-feeding experiment implied that the biosynthesis of 1 or 2 was due to altered substrate specificity of the loading module of MxcE, which likely accepts nicotinic acid and benzoic acid instead of more conventional 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid. We also employed a phylogenomic approach to map the evolutionary relationships of the myxochelin biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) in all the available myxobacterial genomes, to pave the way for the future discovery of potentially hidden myxochelin derivatives. Although the biological function of 1 and 2 is unclear yet, this work underpins that even extensively studied BGCs in myxobacteria can still produce new chemistry.

Abstract
Siderophores are secreted by microorganisms to survive in iron-depleted conditions, and they also possess tremendous therapeutic potential. Genomic-inspired isolation facilitated the identification of eight amphiphilic siderophores, saccharochelins A-H (1-8), from a rare marine-derived Saccharothrix species. Saccharochelins feature a series of fatty acyl groups appended to the same tetrapeptide skeleton. With the help of gene disruption and heterologous expression, we identified the saccharochelin biosynthetic pathway. The diversity of saccharochelins originates from the flexible specificity of the starter condensation (CS) domain at the beginning of the nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) toward various fatty acyl substrates. Saccharochelins showed cytotoxicity against several human tumor cell lines, with IC50 values ranging from 2.3 to 17 μM. Additionally, the fatty acid side chains of the saccharochelins remarkably affected the cytotoxicity, suggesting changing the N-terminal acyl groups of lipopeptides may be a promising approach to produce more potent derivatives.

Abstract
Four new aromatic polyketides, wailupemycins M-P (1-4), and two new hydroxamate siderophores, streptamides A (5) and B (6), together with the previously reported nocardamine (7), were isolated from the marine-algae-derived Streptomyces sp. OUCMDZ-3434. Wailupemycins M-P (1-4), possessing an α-pyrone moiety, were isolated from the extract of a liquid fermentation, and the siderophores (5-7) were isolated from the extract of a solid fermentation. Their structures were assigned based on detailed spectroscopic analysis and quantum chemical calculations. Compounds 5-7 were capable of binding Fe(III). Compound 5 can form a tighter Fe(III) complex than that of deferoxamine B mesylate (DFB).

Abstract
Siderophore natural products are characterized by an ability to tightly chelate metals. The origins of such compounds are often pathogenic microbes utilizing siderophores as virulence factors during host infection. The mechanism for siderophore formation typically involves the activity of nonribosomal peptide synthetases producing compounds across functional group classifications that include catecholate, phenolate, hydroxamate, and mixed categories. Though siderophore production has been a hallmark of pathogenicity, the evolutionarily-optimized binding abilities of siderophores suggest the possibility of re-directing the compounds towards alternative beneficial applications. In this mini-review, we will first describe siderophore formation origins before discussing alternative applications as pharmaceutical products. In so doing, we will cover examples and applications that include reducing metal overload, targeted antibiotic delivery, cancer treatment, vaccine development, and diagnostics. Included in this analysis will be a discussion on the native production hosts of siderophores and prospects for improvement in compound access through the adoption of heterologous biosynthesis.

Abstract
Chemical investigation of a marine sponge-associated Bacillus sp. led to the discovery of bacillibactins E and F (1 and 2). Despite containing the well-established cyclic triester core of iron-binding natural products such as enterobactin, bacillibactins E and F (1 and 2) are the first bacterial siderophores that contain nicotinic and benzoic acid moieties. The structures of the new compounds, including their absolute configurations, were determined by extensive spectroscopic analyses and Marfey's method. A plausible biosynthetic pathway to 1 and 2 is proposed; this route bears great similarity to other previously established bacillibactin-like pathways but appears to differentiate itself by a promiscuous DhbE, which likely installs the nicotinic moiety of 1 and the benzoic acid group of 2.

Abstract
The screening and testing of extracts against a variety of pharmacological targets in order to benefit from the immense natural chemical diversity is a concern in many laboratories worldwide. And several successes have been recorded in finding new actives in natural products, some of which have become new drugs or new sources of inspiration for drugs. But in view of the vast amount of research on the subject, it is surprising that not more drug candidates were found. In our view, it is fundamental to reflect upon the approaches of such drug discovery programs and the technical processes that are used, along with their inherent difficulties and biases. Based on an extensive survey of recent publications, we discuss the origin and the variety of natural chemical diversity as well as the strategies to having the potential to embrace this diversity. It seemed to us that some of the difficulties of the area could be related with the technical approaches that are used, so the present review begins with synthetizing some of the more used discovery strategies, exemplifying some key points, in order to address some of their limitations. It appears that one of the challenges of natural product-based drug discovery programs should be an easier access to renewable sources of plant-derived products. Maximizing the use of the data together with the exploration of chemical diversity while working on reasonable supply of natural product-based entities could be a way to answer this challenge. We suggested alternative ways to access and explore part of this chemical diversity with in vitro cultures. We also reinforced how important it was organizing and making available this worldwide knowledge in an "inventory" of natural products and their sources. And finally, we focused on strategies based on synthetic biology and syntheses that allow reaching industrial scale supply. Approaches based on the opportunities lying in untapped natural plant chemical diversity are also considered.

Microbial siderophores are multidentate Fe(III) chelators used by microbes during siderophore-mediated assimilation. They possess high affinity and selectivity for Fe(III). Among them, marine siderophore-mediated microbial iron uptake allows marine microbes to proliferate and survive in the iron-deficient marine environments. Due to their unique iron(III)-chelating properties, delivery system, structural diversity, and therapeutic potential, marine microbial siderophores have great potential for further development of various drug conjugates for antibiotic-resistant bacteria therapy or as a target for inhibiting siderophore virulence factors to develop novel broad-spectrum antibiotics. This review covers siderophores derived from marine microbes.

Abstract
Two new siderophores, madurastatin D1 and D2, together with (-)-madurastatin C1, the enantiomer of a known compound, were isolated from marine-derived Actinomadura sp. The presence of an unusual 4-imidazolidinone ring in madurastatins D1 and D2 inspired us to sequence the Actinomadura sp. genome and to identify the mad biosynthetic gene cluster, knowledge of which enables us to now propose a biosynthetic pathway. Madurastatin D1 and D2 are moderately active in antimicrobial assays with M. luteus.

Abstract
Covering: January to December 2017This review covers the literature published in 2017 for marine natural products (MNPs), with 740 citations (723 for the period January to December 2017) referring to compounds isolated from marine microorganisms and phytoplankton, green, brown and red algae, sponges, cnidarians, bryozoans, molluscs, tunicates, echinoderms, mangroves and other intertidal plants and microorganisms. The emphasis is on new compounds (1490 in 477 papers for 2017), together with the relevant biological activities, source organisms and country of origin. Reviews, biosynthetic studies, first syntheses, and syntheses that led to the revision of structures or stereochemistries, have been included. Geographic distributions of MNPs at a phylogenetic level are reported.

Abstract
Screening of a marine natural products library for inhibitors of TGF-β revealed five pyrimidinedione derivatives, biemamides A-E (1-5). The structures were determined by 2D NMR and HRMS experiments; absolute configurations were established by advanced Marfey's analysis and ECD calculations. Biemamides A-E specifically inhibited in vitro TGF-β induced epithelial to mesenchymal transition in NMuMG cells. Additionally, using Caenorhabditis elegans, selected biemmamides were found to influence in vivo developmental processes related to body size regulation in a dose-dependent manner.

Abstract
Siderophores are a structurally diverse class of natural products common to most bacteria and fungi as iron(III)-chelating ligands. Siderophores, including trihydroxamate ferrioxamines, are used clinically to treat iron overload diseases and show promising activity against many other iron-related human diseases. Here, we present a new method for the isolation of ferrioxamine siderophores from complex mixtures using affinity chromatography based on resin-immobilized FhuD2, a siderophore-binding protein (SBP) from Staphylococcus aureus. The SBP-resin enabled purification of charge positive, charge negative, and neutral ferrioxamine siderophores. Treatment of culture supernatants from Streptomyces violaceus DSM 8286 with SBP-resin provided an analytically pure sample of the salmycins, a mixture of structurally complex glycosylated sideromycins (siderophore-antibiotic conjugates) with potent antibacterial activity toward human pathogenic Staphylococcus aureus (minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) = 7 nM). Siderophore affinity chromatography could enable the rapid discovery of new siderophore and sideromycin natural products from complex mixtures to aid drug discovery and metabolite identification efforts in a broad range of therapeutic areas.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The emergence of multidrug-resistant bacterial pathogens has led to a global public health emergency and novel therapeutic options and drug-delivery systems are urgently needed. Cefiderocol is a siderophore cephalosporin antibiotic that has recently been developed to combat a variety of bacterial pathogens, including β-lactam- and carbapenem-resistant organisms. AREAS COVERED This paper provides an overview of the mutational and plasmid-mediated mechanisms of β-lactam and carbapenem resistance, the biochemical pathways of siderophores in bacterial iron metabolism, and how cefiderocol may be able to provide better targeted antimicrobial therapy that escape these drug-resistant mechanisms. We also explore the pharmacokinetics of this new compound as well as results from preclinical and clinical studies. EXPERT OPINION There is an urgent need for novel antimicrobial agents to address the emergence of multidrug-resistant pathogens, which are an increasing cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Our understanding of multidrug-resistance and bacterial biochemical pathways continues to expand, and the development of cefiderocol specifically targeting siderophore-mediated iron transport shows potential in escaping mechanisms of drug resistance. Cefiderocol, which demonstrates a favorable side effect profile, has the potential to become first-line therapy for our most aggressive and lethal multidrug-resistant Gram-negative pathogens.
