Nargenicin (CP-47,444, CS-682) is a 28 carbon macrolide with a fused tricyclic core that has in addition a unique ether bridge. The polyketide antibiotic was isolated from Nocardia argentinensis.[1] Nargenicin is effective towards gram-positive bacteria and been shown to have strong antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, including strains that are resistant to methicillin.[2] It has also been shown to induce cell differentiation and inhibit cell proliferation in a human myeloid leukemia cell line.[3]

Biosynthesis

The biosynthesis of nargenicin is believed to be closely related to fatty acid biosynthesis to produce a polyketide chain. David E. Cane and colleagues have used feeding experiments to determine that nargenicin is derived from common precursors acetate and propionate.[4][5][6]

The polyketide chain produced then undergoes a ring closure to form the large lactone ring and a Diels–Alder reaction to form the fused cyclohexane/cyclohexene rings. The oxygen atoms attached to carbons in positions that do not correspond to polyketides—carbons 8 and 13 (the ether bridge), carbon 2 (the methoxy substituent), and carbon 18 (on the hydroxyethyl chain attached to the lactone ring) are derived from molecular oxygen.[7]
