Abstract: | A new HIV-inhibitory cyclic depsipeptide, neamphamide A (2), was isolated from a Papua New Guinea collection of the marine sponge Neamphius huxleyi. Its structure was established through interpretation of spectroscopic data and by acid hydrolysis, derivatization of the free amino acids, and LC-MS analysis of the derivatives. Neamphamide A (2) contains 11 amino acid residues and an amide-linked 3-hydroxy-2,4,6-trimethylheptanoic acid moiety. The amino acid constituents were identified as L-Leu, L-NMeGln, D-Arg, D- and L-Asn, two residues of D-allo-Thr, L-homoproline, (3S,4R)-3,4-dimethyl-L-glutamine, beta-methoxytyrosine, and 4-amino-7-guanidino-2,3-dihydroxyheptanoic acid. In a cell-based XTT assay, 2 exhibited potent cytoprotective activity against HIV-1 infection with an EC50 of approximately 28 nM. |
