  • Alichondrichlorin, a Novel Chlorohydrin-Containing Natural Product With Tumoral Cytotoxic Activity Isolated From the Planctomycetota Bacterium Alienimonas chondri LzC2.

This work contemplates the description of a large-scale cultivation study of strain LzC2, followed by metabolite extraction and compound isolation using chromatographic approaches, which resulted in the isolation of a novel molecule designated as alichondrichlorin. Structural elucidation of this new molecule was accomplished by a combination of high-resolution mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance. The molecule was additionally screened for anti-proliferative bioactivity against human tumoral and non-tumoral cell lines. These cytotoxicity assays revealed a targeted effect of alichondrichlorin in the growth of tumoral cell lines, especially human breast adenocarcinoma MCF-7 cell line (EC = 4.06 μM) without effect on the human non-tumoral THLE-2 cell line (EC > 50 μM).
