Hormaomycin, a Novel Peptide Lactone with Morphogenetic Activity on StreptomycesA culture identified as Streptomyces griseoflavus (strain W-384) has been found to produce a novel peptide-lactone antibiotic designated hormaomycin (6). The empirical molecular formula of the compound is established to be C55H69ClN10O14. The constituent amino acids of the antibiotic are suggested to be allothreonine (1; 1), isoleucine (2; 1), 3-methyl-phenylalanine (3; 2), and, for the first time identified from a natural source, 4-[(Z)-prop-1-enyl]-proline (4; 1) and 3-(2-nitrocyclopropyl)-alanine (5; 2). The amino acids were delivered by acidic hydrolysis and assigned by high-resolution- GC/MS analysis (after transformation to derivatives) in combination with extended 2D-NMR experiments of the antibiotic itself. From the latter, it became plausible that the N-terminus of the peptide chain is acylated by a Cl-containing derivative of 1H-pyrrol-2-carboxylic acid. Hormaomycin is active against some Gram-positive bacteria. In addition, the antibiotic exhibits potent aerial mycelium-inducing activity and effects the production of antibiotics.
