The invention discloses an
insect-resistant and antibacterial
pyrrole alkaloid compound and a biosynthetic
gene cluster thereof. The structure of the
pyrrole alkaloid compound is shown as a formula (I), wherein compounds 2, 3, 4, 14 and 15 are new compounds. The
gene cluster of the
pyrrole alkaloid compound is disclosed for the first time, and each
gene function is confirmed for the first time. PasA and PasD act together to form a pyrrolidone skeleton intermediate 8, and then the compound 8 is converted into a final product 1 by PasB. The invention discloses the inhibitory activity of the compounds on
chitinase, lepidoptera pests, namely
plutella xylostella and agricultural pathogenic fungi, and a biosynthetic pathway of a
lead compound 1 for the first time. The fatality rate of the compound 1 on lepidoptera pest
plutella xylostella reaches 100%, the effect of the compound 1 is better than that of DFB, and the compound 1 also has good inhibition potential on agricultural pathogenic fungi. The invention provides a new alternative compound for
pesticide development, and lays a
solid foundation for realizing green and efficient synthesis of the compound 1.
