Abstract

A novel compound depudecin inducing the flat phenotype of ras- and src- transformed NIH3T3 cells at a concentration of 1 microgram/ml was isolated from the culture broth of Alternaria brassicicola. Based on its spectroscopic characteristics and X-ray crystallographic analysis of its bis-(1S)-(-)-camphanate, the structure of depudecin was determined to be (2R,3S,4S,5E,7S,8S,9R)-2,9- dihydroxy-3,4;7,8-diepoxy-undeca-5,10-diene.
