ABSTRACT
The first total synthesis of icosalide A, an antibacterial depsipeptide that is unique in that it contains two lipophilic beta-hydroxy acids, has been achieved by following Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis in combination with solution-phase synthesis. The ambiguity in the absolute stereochemistry of icosalide A has been resolved by synthesizing the reported structures and other relevant diastereomers of icosalides and comparing their NMR data. NMR-based structure elucidation of icosalide A revealed a well-folded structure with cross-strand hydrogen bonds similar to the anti-parallel beta-sheet conformation in peptides and displayed a synergistic juxtaposition of the aliphatic sidechains. 12 analogues of icosalide A were synthesized by varying the constituent lipophilic beta-hydroxy acid residues, and their biological activities against Bacillus thuringiensis and Paenibacillus dendritiformis were explored. Most of these icosalide analogues showed an MIC of 12.5 µg mL-1 against both bacteria. Swarming inhibition by icosalides was least in B. thuringiensis (8.3%) compared to that in P. dendritiformis (33%). Furthermore, this is the first report of icosalides showing assured inhibitory action (MIC between 2 and 10 µg mL-1) against the active stage of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and cancer cell lines such as HeLa and ThP1. This study could help optimize icosalides for anti-TB, antibacterial, and anti-cancer activities.
