Abstract
In the screening of antitumor compounds from microbial secondary metabolites, myxochelin A was isolated from a culture broth of Nonomuraea pusilla TP-A0861. The absolute configuration was determined to be S by synthesizing both enantiomers from an L- or D-lysine derivative and comparing their specific rotations. Both enantiomers of myxochelin A showed remarkable inhibitory effects on the invasion of murine colon 26-L5 carcinoma cells at non-cytotoxic concentrations.
