Abstract
Two cyclotetrapeptides, henceforth named Provipeptides A (1) and B (2), along with five known diketopiperazines (3–7) were isolated from the liquid culture of marine Streptomyces sp. 161a recovered from a sample of sea grass Bryopsis sp. The structures of cyclotetrapeptides and diketopiperazines (DKPs) were established by 1D and 2D NMR data, MS, and by comparison with literature data. The absolute stereochemistry of compounds cyclo-(l-Pro-l-Leu-d-Pro-l-Phe) 1 and cyclo-(-Pro-Ile-Pro-Phe) 2 was established by the Marfey’s method. Compound 1 showed antibacterial activity against rice phytopathogenic strains Burkholderia glumae (MIC = 1.1 mM) and Burkholderia gladioli (MIC = 0.068 mM), compound 2 was active only against B. glumae (MIC = 1.1 mM), and DKP cyclo-[l-Pro-l-Leu] 5 showed to be active against B. gladioli (MIC = 0.3 mM) and B. glumae (MIC = 2.4 mM). Compounds 1 and 2 showed 65% and 50% inhibition of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (yam pathogen) conidia germination, respectively at a concentration of 1.1 mM.
