Abyssomicin Monomers and Dimers from the Marine-Derived <i>Streptomyces koyangensis</i> SCSIO 5802

Abstract

Three new abyssomicin monomers designated neoabyssomicins D (1), E (2), and A2 (3) and the two dimeric neoabyssomicins F (4) and G (5) were discovered from the marine-derived Streptomyces koyangensis SCSIO 5802, and their structures rigorously elucidated. Neoabyssomicin D (1) possesses an unprecedented 8/5/5/7 ring skeleton, the biosynthesis of which (as well as 2) is proposed herein. Additionally, dimeric agents 4 and 5 were found to be active against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and vesicular stomatitis virus, respectively.
