Abstract

An optimized nitroso-based probe that facilitates the discovery of conjugated alkene-containing natural products in unprocessed extracts was developed. It chemoselectively reacts with conjugated olefins via a nitroso-Diels-Alder cyclization to yield derivatives with a distinct chromophore and an isotopically unique bromine atom that can be rapidly identified using liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry and a bioinformatics tool called MeHaloCoA (Marine Halogenated Compound Analysis). The probe is ideally employed when genome-mining techniques identify strains containing polyketide gene clusters with two or more repeating KS-AT-DH-KR-ACP domain sequences, which are required for the biosynthesis of conjugated alkenes. Comparing the reactivity and spectral properties of five brominated arylnitroso reagents with model compounds spiramycin, bufalin, rapamycin, and rifampicin led to the identification of 5-bromo-2-nitrosopyridine as the most suitable probe structure. The utility of the dienophile probe was then demonstrated in bacterial extracts. Tylactone, novodaryamide and daryamide A, piperazimycin A, and the saccharamonopyrones A and B were cleanly labeled in extracts from their respective bacterial producers, in high regioselectivity but with varying degrees of diastereoselectivity. Further application of the method led to the discovery of a new natural product called nocarditriene, containing an unprecedented epoxy-2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridine structure, from marine-derived Nocardiopsis strain CNY-503.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The practice of labeling functional groups in uncharacterized NP mixtures using a non-targeted metabolomics approach is uncommon in NP discovery, and there are currently only a few existing examples.

    “Although these approaches have been in certain cases efficiently applied for NP discovery, the practice of labeling functional groups in uncharacterized NP mixtures using a non-targeted metabolomics approach is uncommon in NP discovery, and there are currently only a few existing examples.124–128”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
