(Redirected from Depsipeptides)
Example of a depsipeptide with 3 amide groups (highlighted blue) and one ester group (highlighted green).

A depsipeptide is a peptide in which one or more amide, -C(O)NHR-, linkages are replaced by the corresponding ester, -C(O)OR-.[1] Depsipeptides usually contain alternating amide and ester linkages.[2] Elimination of an amide linkage in a peptide structure results in a decrease of H-bonding capability, which is responsible for secondary structure within peptides, thus inducing structural warping and diversity.[2][3] Because of the decreased electron delocalization in esters relative to amides, depsipeptides have lower rotational barriers and therefore are quite flexible and malleable structures.[2][3] They are mainly produced in nature by soil and marine sediment inhabiting bacteria.[4]

Chemical structure of romidepsin

An example of a depsipeptide drug is the anticancer agent romidepsin, a known histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi). It was first isolated as a fermentation product from the soil bacterium Chromobacterium violaceum by the Fujisawa Pharmaceutical Company.[5][6]

Streptogramins, specifically streptogramin B, are depsipeptides that bind to the 50S subunit of bacterial ribosomes.[7] Etamycin was shown in preliminary data in 2010 to have potent activity against MRSA in a mouse model.[8]

Several depsipeptides from Streptomyces exhibit antimicrobial activity.[9][10] These form a new, potential class of antibiotics known as acyldepsipeptides (ADEPs). ADEPs target and activate casein lytic protease (ClpP) to initiate uncontrolled peptide and unfolded protein degradation, killing many Gram-positive bacteria.[11][12][13]

Depsipeptides can be formed through a Passerini reaction.[14]

Streptogramins [1] are a class of antibiotics of two types, streptogramin A and streptogramin B. Separately, group A and group B streptogramins are bacteriostatic, by reversible binding to the 50S subunit of 70S bacterial ribosomes. Together, however, streptogramins from each group are synergic and bactericidal.
