Show moreGenomics has been revolutionized by improved sequencing technologies, allowing for the detailed exploration of microbial dark matter and complex microscopic ecosystems. The bottleneck in genomic workflows has shifted from high-throughput sequencing to data analysis. This dissertation developed the Florida Center for Coastal and Human Health Shotgun Metagenomics Workflow (FCHsm) that is easy to use and tailor to unique datasets. This work acts as the beta-testing for the workflow, as it analyzes disparate biomes (environmental and host microbiomes) at varying sequencing depths (shallow and deep). FCHsm was used to resolve molecular dynamics and mine trans-kingdom metagenomes for secondary metabolic biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) in two marine environments— Indian River Lagoon toxic harmful algal blooms (IRL HABs) and the medicinal Leiodermatium sponge holobiont. First, an in silico mock dataset was analyzed to benchmark the FCHsm workflow. Sourmash, coupled with the Genome Taxonomy Database, outcompeted the other taxonomic profilers by accurately predicting the size of the mock metagenome (450 genomes) and recalling the highest number of species (82 %) and strains (44 %). Nonpareil calculated the sequencing effort needed for 100 % coverage for all the datasets and correctly estimated the 75 Gbp of sequencing needed for almost 100 % coverage of the mock metagenomes (99.5 %). Next, the trans-kingdom metagenomes of the IRL were explored, and potential HAB biomarkers were identified.

Show moreNatural products play a historical role in the discovery of medicine but present unique challenges for chemical isolation, identification and production. In this work we describe the identification of twenty novel diterpenoids. These were isolated by use of chromatography, and the structures determined by spectroscopic methods, primarily 1D and 2D NMR. Six of these possess unprecedented diterpenoid skeletons and two of them show significant growth inhibitory effects on cancer cell lines in vitro (GI50 < 10 μM). The biomimetic semisynthesis of diterpendoids and analogues is also presented. Access to the bielschowskyane carbon skeleton by dearomatization of a furanocembranoid precursor is described. Highlights include a stereoselective alkene epoxidation, a novel kinetic furan dearomatization method, and an efficient [2+2] photochemical cycloaddition. The role of conformational steering was studied spectroscopically using VT 1H-NMR and NOESY as well as quantum chemical calculations at the DFT level of theory. We also disclose a biomimetic synthesis of providencin using a photochemical Norrish-Yang cyclization. This provided the absolute configuration by chemical correlation with the precursor bipinnatin E, the latter determined by x-ray diffraction. An unexpected, regioisomeric byproduct was observed and a possible mechanism is proposed. A biomimetic synthesis of the diterpene alkaloid aceropterine is also described, using an epoxidation-rearrangement cascade. This work led to a revised structure of aceropterine, formulated by spectroscopic methods. Finally, the isolation and structure elucidation of a novel, cyclic lipopeptide from Pseudomonas sp. is described. The compound was obtained using a unique antibiotic crowd sourcing approach and the structure determined by spectroscopic methods and advanced Marfey’s analysis.

Show moreThe projects described in this dissertation are focused on compounds derived from marine organisms collected from the western Atlantic marine environment. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the study of natural products chemistry, marine natural products, and overview of the research undertaken from natural product chemists. Chapter 2 describes the isolation and structure elucidation of a series of rare diterpenoids from the gorgonian Briareum asbestinum, together with their conformational analysis and biosynthetic interconversions. These rare diterpenes from Briareum asbestinum are linked by an unusual transannular oxa-6π electrocyclization which is described in detail and this work demonstates the biomimetic hemisynthesis of briareolate esters L (19) to B (22) achieved via an intermediary, briareolate ester G (2), through a controlled set of photoinduced isomerizations and a unique photochromic transannular oxa-6π electrocyclization. This work focuses largely on the mechanistic understanding of the photochemical production of these briarane diterpenoids and illustrates a unique UVA/UVC, photochromic switch which induces a transannular oxa- 6π electrocyclization. Chapter 3 describes the assay-guided isolation of marine antioxidants. This chapter focuses on the screening of marine organism extracts using the Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) assay for antioxidant activity guided isolation of marine natural products. The chapter concludes with the activity guided isolation and structural elucidation of 1-O-palmitoyl-2-O-myristoyl-3-O-(6-sulfo-α-D-quinovopyranosyl)- glycerol (40) to show direct antioxidant potential through FRAP analysis. Chapter 4 describes the isolation, structural elucidation and pharmacological evaluation of the novel secondary metabolites iso-PsA(45), Iso-PsC (46), iso-PsD (47) as well as known Pseudopterosins A(41), B(42), C(43), D(44), K(48), K2’OAc(49), K2’OAc(50). These secondary metabolites were evaluated for both cytotoxicity. The chapter concludes with the screening of these compounds as αβ-amyloid fibril modulators utilizing atomic force microcopy (AFM).
