• .18.166 Abstract Longicatenamides A–D are cyclic hexapeptides isolated from the combined culture of Streptomyces sp. KUSC_F05 and Tsukamurella pulmonis TP-B0596. Because these peptides are not detected in the monoculture broth of the actinomycete, they are key tools for understanding chemical

• longicatenamide A was confirmed. The developed solid-phase synthesis is expected to facilitate the rapid synthesis of diverse synthetic analogues.

• the combined-culture strategy and new labeling reagents has led to the detection and structural determination of several unprecedented secondary metabolites [5][6][7]. Longicatenamides A–D (1–4, Figure 1) are cyclic hexapeptides isolated from the combined-culture of Streptomyces sp. KUSC_F05 and T
