Abstract

A new 3-amino-6-hydroxy-2-piperidone (Ahp) containing peptolide, pompanopeptin A (1), and a novel N-methyl-2-amino-6-(40 -hydroxyphenyl)hexanoic acid (N-Me-Ahpha) containing cyclic pentapeptide connected with a sixth amino acid residue via a rare ureido linkage, pompanopeptin B (2), were isolated from the marine cyanobacterium Lyngbya confervoides collected from the southeastern coast of Florida. Their planar structures were determined by a combination of NMR spectroscopic analysis and mass spectrometry. The absolute configurations were established using advanced Marfey's method and chiral HPLC analysis of the chemical degradation products. Compound 1 selectively inhibited trypsin over elastase and chymotrypsin, with an IC50 value of 2.4 mM; selectivity is conferred by an arginine residue in the cyclic core.
