The artificial hybrid polycyclic tetramate macrolactam (PoTeM) gene cluster was constructed through combinatory biosynthesis approach and two PoTeMs, preikarugamycin (1) and clifednamide K (2), were isolated from the recombinant strain SR111-cbmA-OX1-cftC. The chemical structures of 1 and 2 were determined to be the biosynthetic inermediate of ikarugamycin and a new 5/6 dicyclic PoTeM, respectively, by analysis of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) data and high resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). The antibacterial activity of compounds 1 and 2 was tested by filter paper disc diffusion assay. The results showed that they were inactive at 20 μg/disc. The cytotoxicity of compounds 1 and 2 was evaluated by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) colorimetric method. Compound 1 showed potent antiproliferative activity against human liver (HepG-2) and breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7) with half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of 3.34 and 2.72 μmol/L, respectively, while compound 2 showed no cytotoxicity for the tested cell lines.

Key words: natural product, biological activity, polycyclic tetramate macrolactam, heterologous expression
