Streptomyces-derived natural products are an important source of lead compounds for drug discovery. Traditional methods for mining these compounds are costly, time-consuming, and labor-intensive. To address these challenges, we applied NP-PRESS, a two-stage metabolome refining pipeline, to Streptomyces speibonae W307, isolated from a mangrove environment. We conducted a thorough analysis of molecular features using NP-PRESS, leading to the identification of three natural products named strepyrazinones A, B, and C, two of which possess new structures. These compounds were characterized using high-resolution MS and NMR, with their configurations determined through ECD calculations. Additionally, we proposed their corresponding biosynthetic gene cluster and putative biosynthetic pathways.
链霉菌属来源的天然产物是药物研发中先导化合物的重要来源。挖掘这些化合物的传统方法成本高、耗时且劳动强度大。为应对这些挑战,我们将NP - PRESS(一种两阶段代谢组精炼流程)应用于从红树林环境中分离出的斯氏链霉菌W307。我们使用NP - PRESS对分子特征进行了全面分析,从而鉴定出三种名为链吡嗪酮A、B和C的天然产物,其中两种具有新结构。这些化合物通过高分辨率质谱和核磁共振进行了表征,并通过电子圆二色光谱(ECD)计算确定了它们的构型。此外,我们还提出了它们相应的生物合成基因簇和推测的生物合成途径。
