Abstract
Streptomyces globisporus 1912, a producer of the antitumor antibiotic landomycin E, forms the new low-molecular signaling molecule N-methylphenylalanyl-dehydrobutyrine diketopiperazine (BDD) and its complex and unstable by-product which restore, like the A-factor in Streptomyces griseus 773, landomycin E and streptomycin biosynthesis, and sporulation of the defective mutants S. globisporus 1912-B2 and S. griseus 1439, respectively. Here, we report the purification and structure elucidation of two compounds with R(f)0.8 by HPLC, LC/MS and 1HMR analysis. These compounds have m/z 338 and 384, accordingly, and each of them is presented by two stereoisomers containing BDD in their structure. A hypothesis explaining the composition and regulatory properties of these unstable compounds is presented.
