However, they are not discovered widely compared with the large amounts of tryptamine derivatives generated by chemical synthesis. We here report the discovery of five tryptamine-derived natural products(1-5) and one known polyketide 6 from Bacillus sp. PKU-TA00001. Compounds 1 and 2 are new compounds featuring methyl-hexanamide moieties, compound 4 is first discovered as a natural product, and 3 and 4’s NMR data are first provided. All compounds showed MIC(minimum inhibitory concentration) values higher than 50 μM against several Gram-positive and negative strains, and showed no cytotoxicity at the concentration of 100 μM against the human cancer cell lines A549, HCT-8 and MCF-7. The discovery of 1-4 expands the structural diversity of tryptamine-derived natural products, and sets the stage for revealing their biosynthetic mechanisms and biological activities in the future.展开更多
