Biosynthetic Multitasking Facilitates Thalassospiramide Structural Diversity in Marine Bacteria
27 Dec 2012
Abstract excerpt
Thalassospiramides A and B are immunosuppressant cyclic lipopeptides first reported from the marine α-proteobacterium Thalassospira sp. CNJ-328. We describe here the discovery and characterization of an extended family of 14 new analogues from four Tistrella and Thalassospira isolates. These potent calpain 1 protease inhibitors belong to six structure classes in which the length and composition of the acylpeptide...
