Abstract

Dumulmycin (1) was isolated from Streptomyces sp. DM28, a bacterial strain from a riverine sediment sample. The structure of 1 was elucidated as a bicyclic macrolide possessing 19-membered and 5-membered rings by spectroscopic analysis. The stereochemistry of 1 was determined by J-based configuration analysis, ROESY NMR data, DP4 calculations, and the modified Mosher's method. Genetic analysis identified a trans-acyltransferase polyketide biosynthetic gene cluster for 1. Dumulmycin exhibited in vitro antitubercular activity (MIC50 = 27.1 μM).
