    Stereospecific polycyclic core formation of hapalindoles and fischerindoles is controlled by Stig cyclases through a three‐step cascade involving Cope rearrangement, 6‐exo‐trig cyclization, and a final electrophilic aromatic substitution. Reported here is a comprehensive study of all currently annotated Stig cyclases, revealing that these proteins can assemble into heteromeric complexes, induced by Ca2+, to cooperatively control the stereochemistry of hapalindole natural products.Die stereospezifische Bildung des polycyclischen Kerns der Hapalindole und Fischerindole wird durch Stig‐Cyclasen gesteuert, die eine dreistufige Kaskade aus Cope‐Umlagerung, 6‐exo‐trig‐Cyclisierung und elektrophiler aromatischer Substitution vermitteln. Die Proteine können sich induziert durch Ca2+ zu heterotrimeren Komplexen zusammenlagern, um auf kooperative Weise die Stereochemie zu steuern.Peer Reviewedhttps://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/155506/1/ange201913686.pdfhttps://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/155506/2/ange201913686-sup-0001-misc_information.pdfhttps://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/155506/3/ange201913686_am.pd

    Sanctolide A (1), a 14-membered polyketide-nonribosomal peptide (PK-NRP) hybrid macrolide, was isolated from the cultured cyanobacterium Oscillatoria sancta (SAG 74.79). The planar structure was determined using various spectroscopic techniques including HRESIMS, and 1D and 2D NMR analyses. The relative configuration was assigned by J-based configurational analysis in combination with NOE correlations. The absolute configuration was determined by Mosher ester and enantioselective HPLC analyses. The structure of sanctolide A (1) features a rare N-methyl enamide and a 2-hydroxyisovaleric acid, which are incorporated to form a 14-membered macrolide ring structure, comprising a new type of cyanobacterial macrolides derived from a PKS-NRPS hybrid biosynthetic pathway

    Stigonemapeptin (<b>1</b>), a depsipeptide containing an Ahp (3-amino-6-hydroxy-2-piperidone) residue, was isolated from a bloom sample of the freshwater cyanobacterium <i>Stigonema</i> sp. collected from North Nokomis Lake in the Highland Lake District of northern Wisconsin. The planar structure was determined by 1D and 2D NMR experiments as well as HRESIMS analysis. The absolute configurations of the amino acids were determined using the advanced Marfey’s method after acid hydrolysis. Stigonemapeptin (<b>1</b>), characterized by the presence of the Ahp residue, also contained the modified amino acids Abu (2-amino-2-butenoic acid) and <i>N</i>-formylated Pro. Stigonemapeptin (<b>1</b>) showed <i>in vitro</i> elastase and chymotrypsin inhibitory activity, with IC<sub>50</sub> values of 0.26 and 2.93 ÎŒM, respectively
