Fluostatins M-Q Featuring a 6-5-6-6 Ring Skeleton and High Oxidized A-Rings from Marine Streptomyces sp. PKU-MA00045.

ABSTRACT: Aromatic polyketides from marine actinomycetes have received increasing attention due to their unusual structures and potent bioactivities. Compared to their terrestrial counterparts, marine aromatic polyketides have been less discovered and their structural and biological diversities are far from being fully investigated. In this study, we employed a PCR-based genome mining method to discover aromatic polyketides in our marine bacteria collection. Five new atypical angucyclinones, fluostatins M-Q (1-5) featuring a unique 6-5-6-6 ring skeleton, were discovered from one "positive" Streptomyces sp. PKU-MA00045. The structures of fluostatins M-Q (1-5) were elucidated based on comprehensive spectroscopic analyses and the crystallographic structure of fluostat
