Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a nucleoside antibiotic with anti-tuberculosis bacillus activity, and also relates to a preparation method and application of the nucleoside antibiotic. Background Art
[0002] Twelve years after penicillin was introduced as the first antibiotic, drug-resistant bacteria gradually emerged and even developed into super-resistant bacteria. With the widespread use of antibiotics, bacterial resistance continues to threaten human health and global public health security. In 2002, McDonald et al. first isolated 22 muraymycins from the fermentation broth of Streptomyces sp. NRRL 30471 (J Am. Chem. Soc. 2002, 124: 10260), and found that they have extremely strong MraY translocase activity, which can effectively inhibit the bacterial cell wall biosynthesis process, thereby showing strong antibacterial activity. Muraymycins belong to the nucleoside antibiotics. Their structural units mainly include valine, L-leucine, non-protein amino acid epicapreomycidine, aminopropane, and glycyluridine (GlyU) core parts. According to the structural variation of the leucine residues in the polypeptide part, they can be divided into four categories: A, B, C, and D. Category D is the simplest L-leucine, category C is (3S)-3-OH-L-leucine, and category B is L-leucine acylated and connected to a saturated fatty acid branch chain with a carbon chain length of 3 to 10 Cs. Category A is similar to category B, except that the end of the fatty acid branch chain is substituted by a guanidine group. Among them, category A has the strongest antibacterial activity, with a MIC of less than 0.03μg / mL for Escherichia coli mutants (E.coliΔtolC) and an ED of less than 0.01μg / mL for mice infected with Staphylococcus aureus. 50 In addition to its MraY translocase inhibitory activity, muraymycin D1 also has inhibitory activity against N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphotransferase (WecA) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in both replicating and non-replicating states, showing good anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis activity. However, the yield of muraymycins in fermentation culture is low, and it is necessary to optimize the fermentation method to increase the yield of the compound, or to find other analogues with novel structures and stronger activities.

[0028] The technical scheme of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the examples. The test materials used in the examples can be purchased through conventional channels, among which Streptomyces sp. NRRL 30475 was purchased from ARS Culture Collection (https: / / nrrl.ncaur.usda.gov / ).
[0029] Example 1
[0030] The preparation method of the nucleoside antibiotic muraymycin D9 of the present invention comprises the following steps:
[0031] (1) Fermentation: A purified strain of Streptomyces sp. NRRL 30475 was cultured at 28°C for 3 days using BPM23A medium (medium composition: 5.0 g / L glucose; 20.0 g / L HY yeast 441; 7.0 g / L calcium carbonate; 80.0 g / L Maltrin m180; 1.5 g / L L-methionine; 1.5 g / L L-leucine; 1.5 g / L L-arginine). The obtained seed culture solution was inoculated into 10 L of BPM23A medium and cultured at 28°C for 7 days to obtain a fermentation solution.
[0032] (2) Extraction: The fermentation liquid was centrifuged to obtain mycelium and supernatant. The mycelium was directly extracted with methanol ultrasonically for 3 times, and extract A was obtained after concentration; 1%-4% non-ionic macroporous resin was added to the supernatant, stirred for 6-8 hours, filtered, and the filtrate was discarded. The macroporous resin was eluted with methanol until colorless, and methanol was recovered to obtain extract B; the results were analyzed by HPLC-MS, and A and B were combined for subsequent separation;
[0033] (3) Separation: The extract was separated by MCI column chromatography, eluted with 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% methanol in sequence, and 19 fractions (Fr.1-1 to Fr.1-19) were obtained. Fr.1-7 was separated by gel column chromatography to obtain 5 fractions (Fr.1-7-1 to Fr.1-7-5), and Fr.1-7-2 was separated by preparative liquid chromatography (eluted with 26% MeOH) to obtain the compound muraymycin D9 (yield: 4.6 mg), the structural formula of which is as follows: Figure 1 shown.
[0034] The nucleoside compound muraymycin D9 of the present invention is a white powder, and the electrospray ionization mass spectrometry signal m / z912.4427[M+H] + and m / z 910.3[MH] - , its molecular formula is inferred to be C 38 H 61 N 11 O 15 . 1 H and 13 C NMR data are shown in Table 1.

[0036]
[0037]
[0038] Structural analysis of muraymycin D9: yellow powder, according to HRESIMS data (m / z: 912.4427 [M+H] + , the calculated value is 912.4427, Figure 2 ) It is speculated that its molecular formula is C 38 H 61 N 11 O 15 The degree of unsaturation is 14. 1 HNMR, 13 C NMR and HSQC spectra ( Figure 3 to Figure 5 ) were analyzed and found to contain 7 carbonyl groups, 1 guanidine group, 5 methyl groups, 7 methylene groups, 18 methine groups (including 2 sp 2 Compared with the known compound muraymycin D1, its molecular formula has one less H2O and one more unsaturation. C 157.1), C-33(δ C 175.7) shifted to high field; C-34 (δ C 62.9) shifted downfield and bound to H-27 of muraymycin D9 [δ H 4.82 (1H, m)] correlates with the key HMBC of C-33 ( Figure 6 ), and its planar structure was determined to be the first reported muraymycin compound in which the carboxyl group of the terminal valine was dehydrated and cyclized with the non-proteinogenic amino acid epicapreomycidine imine.
[0039] By comparing the NMR data (Table 1) and combining the NOESY related signals ( Figure 7 ) and the shared biosynthetic pathway, the relative configuration of the compound muraymycin D9 was determined as follows: Figure 1 The new compound shown.
[0040] Example 2
[0041] Evaluation of anti-Mycobacterium smegmatis activity:
[0042] Take the Mycobacterium smegmatis MC2155 strain, streak culture with Middlebrook 7H10 solid medium, place at 37°C, culture for 2 days, then inoculate into sterile 7H9 liquid medium, shake culture at 37°C for 24 hours until the strain reaches the logarithmic growth phase, and perform subsequent MIC determination experiments. The cultured mycobacteria were centrifuged at 5000rpm×10min to collect the precipitate, washed twice with 7H9 medium, resuspended in fresh 7H9 medium, and ultrasonically dispersed. The OD of Mycobacterium smegmatis was 0.04477 μg / mL. 600 Adjust to 0.02 for later use. In a transparent 96-well plate, dilute the drug to be screened in a 2-fold gradient, set up 4 replicate wells, and set up strain growth controls and culture medium controls. For Mycobacterium smegmatis, the positive control drug is isoniazid. The specific steps are as follows: Use a shotgun to take 200μl / well of fresh culture medium and add it to the first column, take 100μl / well of fresh culture medium and add it to columns 2 to 11, and use a shotgun to add 200μl to each of the four EFGH wells in column 12 as a culture medium control. In the wells in the first column, add 2μl of the 12.8mg / ml compound stock solution prepared with DMSO. Dilute to the 11th column by gradient dilution method, and then take out 100μl of liquid from the 11th column. At this point, the wells in columns 1 to 11 all contain 100μl of gradient diluted compound mixture. Subsequently, add 100μl OD 600 = 0.02 of Mycobacterium smegmatis, making the final concentration 0.01. Add 200 μl of bacterial suspension to each of the four wells ABCD in the 12th column as a bacterial liquid control. At this point, each well of the entire 96-well plate has 200 μl of liquid. Finally, place it directly in a 37°C incubator and culture for 2 days, and use an enzyme marker to measure the bacterial turbidity OD 600 .
[0043] The results showed that the IC of muraymycin D9 against Mycobacterium smegmatis 50The compound has inhibitory activity against Mycobacterium smegmatis in vitro at 32 μg / mL. Mycobacterium smegmatis is often used as a surrogate model organism in the study of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Although it has a high degree of sequence homology with M. tuberculosis, it is considered non-pathogenic to humans and is therefore widely used to study Mycobacterium tuberculosis and other in vivo infections, and is often used to evaluate the potential therapeutic applications of drugs.
