Abstract:

Chromatographic separation of themarine-derived bacterium Bacillus licheniformis resulted in the isolation of two new cyclic lipopeptides named ai-C16 surfactin (1) and ai-C14 surfactin (2), together with iso-C15 surfactin and iso-C16 surfactin. The structures of the new cyclic lipopeptides were determined through extensive spectroscopic analysis. The sequences ofthe amino acids in cyclic nucleus were established by the ESI-MS/MS fragmentation, which provided an efficient method to detect lipopeptides from bacterium extracts without separation.

Key words: Marine-derived bacterium, Bacillus licheniformis, Cyclic lipopeptides, ai-C16 surfactin, ai-C14 surfactin, UPLC-ESI-MS/MS fragmentation
