Marine actinomycetes are known for their production of remarkable organic molecules, particularly those featuring polyoxygenated long-chain backbones. Determining the absolute configurations of these compounds remains a challenging task even today. In this study, we successfully established the planar structures and absolute configurations of two highly flexible amide alkaloids from Streptomyces sp. WU20: kueishanamides A (1) and B (2). These compounds possess a C13 linear backbone and each contains five stereogenic carbon centers. Our approach involved a combination of spectroscopic and computational methods, including J-based configurational analysis and VCD calculations, ensuring the unambiguous determination of their configurations. Kueishanamide A (1) and kueishanamide B (2) showed moderate antifungal activity against pathogenic fungus Crytococcus neoformans, with MIC values of 25 μg/mL each.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 12. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 15 January 2024.
All research outputs
#3,038,666
of 25,713,737 outputs
Outputs from Chemistry & Biodiversity
#41
of 3,177 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#45,547
of 363,934 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Chemistry & Biodiversity
#1
of 187 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,713,737 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 88th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,177 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 1.9. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 98% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 363,934 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 187 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 99% of its contemporaries.
