Novel citrinin derivatives from fungus Penicillium sp. TW131-64 and their antimicrobial activities.
Applied microbiology and biotechnology(2023)
摘要
Six new citrinin derivatives (1, 2, 4, 10, 11, and 16), along with fourteen known analogues, were acquired from Penicillium sp. TW131-64, a marine-derived fungus strain. The chemical structures of new compounds were identified through adopting various spectroscopic methods in combination with X-ray diffraction technology and comparison of the experimental electronic circular dichroism (ECD) with calculated ones. Among them, compounds 1-4 were nitrogen-containing citrinin derivatives existing in enantiomers which were resolved by chiral chromatography. A putative biosynthetic pathway for compounds 1-4 was proposed. Additionally, the antimicrobial activities of these compounds were detected by the broth microdilution assays. Citrinin derivatives 1, 2, 4 and their corresponding enantiomers (1a, 2a, 4a, 1b, 2b, and 4b) exhibited potent antimicrobial activities towards Helicobacter pylori standard strains and multidrug-resistant strains (MIC values ranging from 0.25 to 8 μg/mL), which were comparable or even better than metronidazole. Moreover, compounds 1a and 1b also showed remarkable broad antimicrobial effects towards Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Bacillus subtilis, vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE), and Candida albicans. In summary, our studies demonstrated that citrinin enantiomers 1a-4a and 1b-4b, especially 1a and 1b, can be lead compounds in the research and development (R & D) of novel antimicrobial drugs. KEY POINTS: • 3 novel nitrogen-containing citrinin derivatives (1, 2, 4) were isolated. • citrinin derivatives 1-4 in enantiomers were resolved by chiral chromatography. • citrinin derivatives 1a and 1b showed broad and significant antimicrobial effects.
