Abstract

The structures and bioactivities of three unprecedented fused 5-hydroxyquinoxaline/alpha-keto acid amino acid metabolites (baraphenazines A-C, 1-3), two unique diastaphenazine-type metabolites (baraphenazines D and E, 4 and 5) and two new phenazinolin-type (baraphenazines F and G, 6 and 7) metabolites from the Himalayan isolate Streptomyces sp. PU-10A are reported. This study highlights the first reported bacterial strain capable of producing diastaphenazine-type, phenazinolin-type, and izumiphenazine A-type metabolites and presents a unique opportunity for the future biosynthetic interrogation of late-stage phenazine-based metabolite maturation.
