Polyoxins AL were found to be a new class of peptide nucleosides having the structures shown in Scheme I. Hydrolytic degradation of polyoxins afforded three groups of unusual-L-amino acids, ie, l-(5'-amino-5'-deoxy-jS-D-allofuranuronosyl)-5-hydroxymethyluracil (polyoxin C) or its three nucleobase analogs, 5-0-carbamoyl-2-amino-2-deoxy-L-xylonic acid or its 3-deoxy analog, and 3-ethylidene-L-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid. These structures were established on chemical and spectroscopic evidence. 5'-Aminofuranuronoside common to all polyoxins constitutes a nucleoside with a-amino acid nature. Sequence analysis showed polyoxins are di-or tripeptide of these moieties. The structures so elucidated embody all the interesting chemical features of polyoxins. The hypothetical biochemical significance of the structure was also discussed.
