摘要

Allosamidin is a metabolite produced by Streptomyces species, known for its inhibitory activity against family 18 chitinases. All known natural congeners of allosamidin are pseudotrisaccharides featuring a cyclopentane moiety fused with an aminooxazoline ring. We discovered a novel allosamidin congener produced by Streptomyces sp. No. 1-5-6, an allosamidin producer newly isolated from soil. Although its yield was very low, its structure was elucidated by NMR and MS analyses as N-acetylallosaminylallosamidin, the first natural allosamidin congener with a pseudotetrasaccharide structure. N-Acetylallosaminylallosamidin inhibited bacterially expressed mouse acidic mammalian chitinase with an IC₅₀ value of 102.3 nM, showing strong activity, albeit slightly weaker than that of allosamidin.
