Two new cyclic peptides, pentaminomycins A (1) and B (2), were isolated from cultures of Streptomyces sp. RK88-1441. Based on the interpretation of the NMR, UV, IR, and MS data, the planar structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated as cyclic pentapeptides with a modified amino acid residue, N-5-hydroxyarginine (N5-OH-Arg). The absolute configurations of the constituent amino acid residues were determined by the advanced Marfey's method. Localization of L- and D-amino acids in the sequence was ascertained by chiral analysis of the fragment peptide obtained from a partial hydrolysate; amino acids were identified by LC-MS. Pentaminomycin A (1) reduced alpha-MSH-stimulated melanin synthesis by suppressing the expression of melanogenic enzymes including tyrosinase, tyrosinase-related protein-1 (TRP-1), and tyrosinase-related protein-2 (TRP-2).
