Abstract
A method for the synthesis of daptomycin or a daptomycin analog is carried out on a resin to form a linear precursor followed by a serine ligation macrocyclization in solution. Daptomycin analogs can differ from daptomycin by substitution of amino acids residues and/or deletion or addition of amino acid residues. Daptomycin analogs can include a different fatty acid in the side arm of the daptomycin analog.
Claims4
A daptomycin analogue, wherein said daptomycin analogue has the structure:
- wherein X is O, R is H, and R′C(O)— is a residue of palmitic acid, margaric acid, stearic acid, nonadecylic acid, arachidic acid, heneicosylic acid, behenic acid, tricosylic acid, lignoceric acid, pentacosylic acid, cerotic acid, heptacosylic acid, montanic acid, nonacosylic acid, melissic acid, myristoleic acid, palmitoleic acid, sapienic acid, oleic acid, elaidic acid, vaccenic acid, linoleic acid, linoelaidic acid, α-linolenic acid, arachidonic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, erucic acid, or docosahexaenoic acid.
A daptomycin analogue, wherein said daptomycin analogue has the structure:
- wherein where X is O, and R is H, where R′ is a C9 saturated hydrocarbon and wherein said daptomycin analogue has one to four of the amino acid residues other than the H2NCH(CHRXH)CO2H amino acid, serine, and kynurenine substituted by any natural or unnatural α-amino acid residue, optionally, has two to four additional amino acid residues in the peptide sequence or macrocyclic ring, or has two to four of the amino acid residues other than the H2NCH(CHRXH)CO2H amino acid, serine, and kynurenine removed, and wherein the macrocyclic ring is a 25 to 37 membered ring.
