Abstract
A new siderophore glucuronide, nocardamin glucuronide, was isolated together with nocardamin by applying the one strain-many compounds (OSMAC) approach to the ascamycin-producing strain, Streptomyces sp. 80H647, and performing multivariate analysis using mass spectral data. Structure elucidation was accomplished by a combination of NMR and MS analyses. The absolute configuration of the glucuronic acid moiety was found to be β-D-GlcA by hydrolysis using β-glucuronidase, subsequent derivatization of the hydrolysate, and comparison with standards. The siderophore activity of nocardamin glucuronide was evaluated through the chrome azurol S assay and was comparable to that of nocardamin and deferoxamine (IC50 13.4, 9.5, and 6.3 μM, respectively). Nocardamin glucuronide is the first example of a siderophore glucuronide.
