Optical rotations were measured on a JASCO P-2000 polarimeter, UV/Vis data were obtained using a Beckman DU800 spectrophotometer, and IR spectra were recorded on a Nicolet 100 FT-IR spectrometer. NMR data were obtained on a JEOL ECZ 500 NMR spectrometer equipped with a 3 mm inverse probe (H3X), the 1,1-ADEQUATE experiment was performed on a Bruker AVANCE III 600 MHz NMR with a 1.7 mm dual tune TCI cryoprobe. NMR data were recorded in either DMSO-d6 or methanol-d4 and adjusted to the residual solvent peak (DMSO-d6 δH 2.50, δC 39.52; methanol-d4 δH 3.31, δC 49.00). For HPLC-MS analysis, a Thermo Finnigan Surveyor HPLC system with a Phenomenex Kinetex 5 μm C18 100 × 4.6 mm column coupled to a Thermo-Finnigan LCQ Advantage Max Mass Spectrometer was used. Samples were analyzed using a linear gradient with (A) H2O + 0.1% FA to (B) CH3CN + 0.1% FA at a flow rate of 0.6 ml/min and UV detection at 220 nm, 254 nm and 280 nm. For HR-ESI-MS analysis, an Agilent 6530 Accurate Mass QTOF mass spectrometer was used in the positive ion mode. Semi-preparative HPLC was performed on a Thermo Fisher Scientific HPLC system with a Thermo Dionex UltiMate 3000 pump, RS autosampler, RS diode array detector, and automated fraction collector. All solvents were HPLC grade except for H2O, which was purified by a Millipore Milli-Q system before use.

Low-resolution LC-MS/MS analysis was done on a Thermo Finnigan LCQ Advantage Max mass spectrometer coupled to an HP1050 HPLC. A gradient of 10–100% methanol with 0.02% formic acid over 25 minutes was used for separation. The ESI conditions were set with the source voltage at 5 kV and capillary temperature at 250°C. The detection window was set from 200 to 2000 Da, collision energy was at 35%, isolation width was 3 m/z, with three data dependent MS2 events per MS1 and dynamic exclusion. High resolution LC-MS/MS data was collected on a Bruker impact II qTOF in positive mode with the detection window set from 50 to 1500 Da, on a UPLC gradient of 10–100% acetonitrile with 0.02% formic acid over 17 minutes. The ESI conditions were set with the capillary voltage at 4.5 kV. The detection window was set from 50 to 1500 Da and the top three precursor ions from each MS1 scan were subjected to collision energies of 12 eV, 48eV, and 60eV for a total of nine data dependent MS2 events per MS1 with dynamic exclusion.

Cells from 100 ml cultures were pelleted by centrifugation. The pellet was subjected to a rapid wash with pure ice-cold water and centrifuged. After the process was repeated, the pellet was incubated with 4 ml of a 9:1 mixture of acetone-0.1 N NH4OH for 1 h at 4 °C. Cell debris was removed by centrifugation at 13000 g and 4 °C for 15 min, and the supernatant was analyzed for PPIX by mass spectrometry. The ultraviolet-visible spectrograms were plotted as previously described [4 (link), 30 (link)]. Electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) analyses were conducted by using Finnigan LCQ Advantage Max Mass Spectrometer (Thermo Finnigan).

For chemotaxonomic characterization, strains HO-Ch2T and Actinotalea ferrariae CF5-4T were grown in TSB at 28 °C for 5 days. The cell biomass was dried with methanol and subjected to acidic methanolysis (1.2 M HCl/MeOH, 80 °C, 45 min). The fatty acid composition was analyzed using a Maestro gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer (Interlab, Russia) as described earlier [57 (link)]. The analysis of respiratory quinones of strains HO-Ch2T and A. ferrariae CF5-4T was performed at the All-Russian Collection of Microorganisms. Isoprenoid quinones were extracted from wet cells, purified according to Collins and Jones [58 (link)] and analyzed with a LCQ Advantage MAX mass spectrometer (Thermo Finnigan, San Jose, CA, USA). Membrane lipids were analyzed as described in Supplementary Materials [59 (link),60 (link),61 (link),62 (link),63 (link)]. Peptidoglycan and sugars in the whole cell-wall of strains HO-Ch2T and CF5-4T were analyzed as described in Supplementary Materials [64 (link),65 (link)].

Chemical reagents were purchased from Acros, Fluka, Sigma-Aldrich, or TCI. Deuterated NMR solvents were purchased from Cambridge Isotope Laboratories. 1H NMR spectra were collected on a JEOL ECZ 500 NMR spectrometer equipped with a 3 mm inverse detection probe. NMR spectra were referenced to residual solvent DMSO signals (δ H 2.50 ppm and δ C 39.52 ppm as internal standards). The NMR spectra were processed using MestReNova (Mnova 12.0, Mestrelab Research). Each crude and pure sample was injected and analyzed via LC-MS/MS on a Thermo Finnigan Surveyor Autosampler-Plus/LC-MS/MS/PDA-Plus system coupled to a Thermo Finnigan LCQ Advantage Max mass spectrometer with a 10 minute gradient of 30 – 100% CH3CN in water with 0.1% formic acid in positive mode (Kinetex 5μ C18 100Å, 100 x 4.60 mm, 0.6 mL/min). The ion trap mass spectrometry raw data (.RAW) were converted to the m/z extensible markup language (.mzXML) with MSConvert (v 3.0.19) and uploaded to GNPS.84 (link) Spectral library search was performed against available public libraries and NIST17. The spectra for cryptomaldamide were annotated in the GNPS spectral library (https://gnps.ucsd.edu/) (accession number: CCMSLIB00005724004).

LC-MS/MS data for molecular networking were obtained with a system consisting of a Thermo Finnigan Surveyor Autosampler Plus, LC-Pump-Plus and PDA Plus coupled a Thermo Finnigan LCQ Advantage Max mass spectrometer. The flash chromatography fractions were dissolved in MeOH to a concentration of 1 mg/mL, and 20 µL of each fraction was injected onto a Kinetex C18 column (5 µm, 4.6 mm × 100 mm) (Phenomenex, Torrance, CA, USA). The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile (ACN) and H2O (both containing 0.1% formic acid) with a flow of 0.7 mL/min, and the components were eluted with the following gradient: 30% ACN for 5 min, increase to 99% ACN over 17 min, hold at 99% ACN for 4 min. The MS was run in positive electrospray, and data from m/z 190 to 2000 was recorded with automated full dependent MS/MS scan enabled. The chromatograms were converted to .mzxml files using msConvert (www.proteowizard.sourceforge.net), and the chromatograms were submitted to GNPS for analysis (www.gnps.ucsd.edu). Cytoscape 3.6.0 (www.cytoscape.org) was used to visualize the molecular networks. A cosine value of 0.7 was used to generate the molecular network.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
