Abstract :
Orevactaene (1), a novel oxopolyene, was isolated from Epicoccum nigrum WC47880 during the screening of microbial fermentation extracts for their ability to inhibit the binding between HIV-1 regulatory protein Rev and its viral RNA-binding site, Rev response element (RRE). The structure of 1 was elucidated by spectroscopic methods. Compound 1 displayed inhibitory activity against the Rev/RRE binding with an IC50 value of 3.6 μM.
