JBIR-76 and -77 are isofuranonaphthoquinones (IFNQs) isolated from Streptomyces sp. RI-77. Draft genome sequencing and gene disruption analysis of Streptomyces sp. RI-77 showed that a type II polyketide synthase (PKS) gene cluster (ifn cluster) was responsible for the biosynthesis of JBIR-76 and -77. It was envisaged that an octaketide intermediate (C16 ) could be synthesized by the minimal PKS (IfnANO) and that formation of the IFNQ scaffold (C13 ) would therefore require a C-C bond cleavage reaction. An ifnQ disruptant accumulated some shunt products (C15 ), which were presumably produced by spontaneous cyclization of the decarboxylated octaketide intermediate. Recombinant IfnQ catalyzed the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of 1-(2-naphthyl)acetone, an analogue of the bicyclic octaketide intermediate. Based on these results, we propose a pathway for the biosynthesis of JBIR-76 and -77, involving IfnQ-catalyzed C-C bond cleavage as a key step in the formation of the IFNQ scaffold.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on identifying specialized metabolites from microorganisms that could help in cancer treatment and combat multidrug-resistant pathogens, specifically through the analysis of naphthoquinones and their derivatives.
- Researchers discovered new furanonaphthoquinones (fnqs) with promising anticancer properties from the microorganism sp. CS682, showing lower toxicity compared to traditional naphthoquinones.
- The study utilized techniques like genome mining and CRISPR-Cas9 for gene editing, leading to the isolation and characterization of two compounds, NOC-IBR1 and NOC-IBR2, with NOC-IBR2 demonstrating greater biological activity through various assays.
New isofuranonaphthoquinones and isoindolequinones from Streptomyces sp. CB01883.

Isofuranonaphthoquinones (IFQs) and Isoindolequinones (IIQs) comprise a small family of natural products, with the latter ones are especially uncommon in nature. Here we report the discovery of seven new IFQs, IFQ A-G (1-7), and three new IIQs, IIQ A-C (8-10), along with the known anthraquinone desoxyerythrolaccin (11), from Streptomyces sp. CB01883, expanding the chemical diversity of this family of natural products.
