The new tuberculosis (TB) lead ecumicin (1), a cyclic tridecapeptide, was isolated from Nonomuraea sp. MJM5123, following a high-throughput campaign for anti-TB activity. The large molecular weight of 1599 amu detected by LC-HR-MS precluded the initial inference of its molecular formula. The individual building blocks were identified by extensive NMR experiments. The resulting two possible planar structures were distinguished by LC-MS(2). Determination of absolute configuration and unambiguous structural confirmation were carried out by X-ray crystallography and Marfey's analysis.
新型抗结核先导化合物ecumicin(1)是一种环状十三肽,在针对抗结核活性的高通量筛选中,从野野村菌属MJM5123中分离得到。通过液相色谱-高分辨质谱检测到其分子量为1599原子质量单位,这使得最初难以推断其分子式。通过广泛的核磁共振实验确定了各个结构单元。通过液相色谱-质谱联用(2)区分了由此得到的两种可能的平面结构。通过X射线晶体学和马尔菲法分析确定了绝对构型并明确了结构。
