Streptopertusacin A, a unique indolizinium alkaloid existing as a zwitterion, and six bafilomycins including two previously undescribed ones of 21,22-en-bafilomycin D and 21,22-en-9-hydroxybafilomycin D were isolated from a culture of the seaweed-derived Streptomyces sp. HZP-2216E. Structures of these isolated compounds were determined based on extensive NMR spectroscopic analyses, HRESIMS and MS-MS data. The stereochemical assignments were achieved by NOE information, chemical degradation, Marfey's method, and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculation. Streptopertusacin A is the first example of this type of indolizinium alkaloid from microorganisms and showed moderate activity against the growth of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). 21,22-en-bafilomycin D and 21,22-en-9-hydroxybafilomycin D had potent activities in inhibiting the proliferation of glioma cells and the growth of MRSA.
