Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for producing romidepsin and a fermentation medium. Background technique
[0002] Romidepsin is a natural polypeptide isolated from the fermentation broth of Chromobacterium violaceum, and its molecular formula is C 24 h 36 N 4 o 6 S 2 , with a molecular weight of 540.
[0003] Romidepsin is a new type of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor. HDAC is a kind of zinc ion amidase. When catalyzing histone deacetylation, zinc ion is chelated with the hydrate of oxygen on the acetyl group The excessive or abnormal regulation of HDAC leads to excessive deacetylation of histones, and the condensation of chromosomes inhibits transcription, resulting in a decrease in the expression of corresponding genes, leading to tumorigenesis. The anti-tumor mechanism of romidepsin is that after romidepsin enters the cell, its disulfide bond is reduced to a sulfhydryl group by reducing glutathione (GSH), and the sulfhydryl group can co...
