Two novel compounds, kodaistatin A, C35H34O11, molecular weight 630, and kodaistatin C, C35H34O12, molecular weight 646, have been isolated from cultures of Aspergillus terreus Thom DSM 11247 by solid-phase extraction, size-exclusion chromatography, and various preparative HPLC steps. The use of a range of 2D NMR measurements, in particular 13C-13C correlation measurements, has led to the clarification of the structure of kodaistatin A. Kodaistatin C is a hydroxylated derivative of kodaistatin A. Both natural products contain hydroxylated aspulvinones and identical highly substituted polyketide units. An X-ray single crystal structure analysis of aspulvinon E demonstrated the z-configuration at the central double bond. The kodaistatins are effective inhibitors of the glucose-6-phosphate translocase component of the glucose-6-phosphatase system (EC 3.1.3.9), an enzyme system which is important for the control of blood glucose levels. The IC50 is 80 nM for kodaistatin A and 130 nM for kodaistatin C.

The characterization of the structure of mumbaistatin (1), an effective inhibitor of the glucose-6-phosphatase system (EC 3.1.3.9), is reported. Isolation of mumbaistatin from cultures of Streptomyces sp. DSM 11641 was achieved by anion-exchange and reversed-phase chromatography. The acid-labile inhibitor was methylated for the structure determination. Single-crystal X-ray structure analysis of a triply methylated dehydration product, C31H24O11, revealed the structure of an aromatic dispirodiketal (2), a compound containing a previously undescribed ring system. Extensive 2D-NMR experiments with mumbaistatin and with the methylation products showed that mumbaistatin itself possesses the hydroxydiketodicarboxylic acid structure 1, C28H20O12, which, in the presence of acid or upon activation through methyl ester formation, undergoes self-condensation with loss of water to the dispirodiketal form (2). Mumbaistatin is an anthraquinone derivative, whose open-chain diketo form acts as a specific and powerful inhibitor of glucose-6-phosphate translocase: IC50=5 nM. The activity towards the same enzyme of the cyclized dispirodiketal derivatives is roughly one thousand times lower.
