Altohyrtin A (spongistatin 1, cinachyrolide A)[1] is a polyether macrolide originally isolated from the Okinawan marine sponge Hyrtios altum by Kobayashi et al. in 1993,[2] It was also found in a Indian species of Spongia by Pettit et al,[3] and in a Japanese species of Cinachyra by Fusetani et al.[4] It has potent anti-cancer activity.
Mechanism of action
[edit | edit source]Altohyrtin A binds to the maytansine/rhizoxin site on microtubules.[5]
Biosynthesis
[edit | edit source]While a producer organism for Altohyrtin A has never been isolated in pure culture, the structural features of Altohyrtin A, such as the 'odd-even' rule of methylation, and the abundance of oxygen heterocycles, suggest it is a product of dinoflagellate polyether metabolism.[6] Alternatively, it may be bacterial in origin.[1]
