The ansacarbamitocins are a new family of maytansinoids that are unusually substituted with a glucose subunit and two carbamate functional groups and exhibit modest activity against some agricultural fungal disease organisms. Ansacarbamitocins A-F ( 1- 6) all consist of the same macrocyclic core as the ansamitocins, with variation occurring on the glucose unit, while ansacarbamitocins A1 and B1 ( 7, 8) additionally lack the epoxide group on C-4 and C-5.

A new biosynthetic gene cluster for the bacterial maytansinoids, ansacarbamitocins (ASCs), was identified in DSM 44262. The post-PKS modifications of ASCs were elucidated on the basis of bioinformatics analysis. Specific gene disruption and heterologous expression led to the isolation of seven new bacterial maytansinoids.

Two new abscisic acid-type sesquiterpenes (1, 2), and one new ansamycin (3), together with four known ansamycins, namely ansacarbamitocins 4-7, were isolated from the fermentation extract of Amycolatopsis alba DSM 44262. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated to be (E)-3-methyl-5-(2,6,6-trimethyl-3-oxocyclohex-1-enyl)pent-2-enoic acid (1) and (E)-3-methyl-5-(2,6,6-trimethyl-4-oxocyclohex-2-enyl)pent-2-enoic acid (2), and 9-O-methylansacarbamitocin A1 (3), on the basis of comprehensive analysis of spectroscopic data, respectively. The antimicrobial activities were also evaluated for all seven compounds.
