Abstract:
Disclosed herein are various novel oxazolidinone, imidazolidinone, and thiazolidinone analogs and methods of treating cancer and/or microbial infection using these analogs. Particular 4-oxazolidinone compounds are shown to have anti-cancer and anti-microbial activity.
Abstract:
Disclosed are methods of modulating biosynthesis of Salinosporamide A and its analogs, which are useful in treating cancer, inflammatory conditions, and/or infectious disease. The methods involve, for example, genetic manipulation, selection of reagents in the fermentation feedstock, and selection of fermentation conditions.
Abstract:
Methods of saline fermentation are provided. A fermenter vessel is charged with a fermentation medium having less than about 300 ppm chloride ions, which is then sterilized. A sterile chloride salt solution is added to the medium to produce a saline fermentation medium. The saline fermentation medium is then inoculated with a microorganism and the saline fermentation medium is cultured under conditions suitable for the growth of the microorganism. Finally, the medium can be harvested.
