Abstract
The first total synthesis of MA026 and the identification of its candidate target protein for anti-hepatitis C virus activity are presented. MA026, a novel lipocyclodepsipeptide isolated from the fermentation broth of Pseudomonas sp. RtIB026, consists of a cyclodepsipeptide, a chain peptide, and an N-terminal (R)-3-hydroxydecanoic acid. The first subunit, side chain 2, was prepared by coupling fatty acid moiety 4 with tripeptide 5. The key macrocyclization of the decadepsipeptide at L-Leu(10)-D-Gln(11) provided the second subunit, cyclodepsipeptide 3. Late-stage condensation of the two key subunits and final deprotection afforded MA026. This convergent, flexible, solution-phase synthesis will be invaluable in generating MA026 derivatives for future structure-activity relationship studies. An infectious hepatitis C virus (HCV) cell culture assay revealed that MA026 suppresses HCV infection into host hepatocytes by inhibiting the entry process in a dose-dependent manner. Phage display screening followed by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) binding analyses identified claudin-1, an HCV entry receptor, as a candidate target protein of MA026.
