Applying a Chemogeographic Strategy for Natural Product Discovery from the Marine Cyanobacterium <i>Moorena bouillonii</i>

The tropical marine cyanobacterium <i>Moorena bouillonii</i> occupies a large geographic range across the Indian and Western Tropical Pacific Oceans and is a prolific producer of structurally unique and biologically active natural products. An ensemble of computational approaches, includ...

description The tropical marine cyanobacterium <i>Moorena bouillonii</i> occupies a large geographic range across the Indian and Western Tropical Pacific Oceans and is a prolific producer of structurally unique and biologically active natural products. An ensemble of computational approaches, including the creation of the ORCA (Objective Relational Comparative Analysis) pipeline for flexible MS<sup>1</sup> feature detection and multivariate analyses, were used to analyze various <i>M. bouillonii</i> samples. The observed chemogeographic patterns suggested the production of regionally specific natural products by <i>M. bouillonii</i>. Analyzing the drivers of these chemogeographic patterns allowed for the identification, targeted isolation, and structure elucidation of a regionally specific natural product, doscadenamide A (<b>1</b>). Analyses of MS<sup>2</sup> fragmentation patterns further revealed this natural product to be part of an extensive family of herein annotated, proposed natural structural analogs (doscadenamides B–J, 2–10); the ensemble of structures reflect a combinatorial biosynthesis using nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) and polyketide synthase (PKS) components. Compound <b>1</b> displayed synergistic in vitro cancer cell cytotoxicity when administered with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). These discoveries illustrate the utility in leveraging chemogeographic patterns for prioritizing natural product discovery efforts.
