Homocereulide, isolated from marine bacterium Bacillus cereus, is an analog of emetic toxin cereulide. There is no report on its structure determination and involvement in B. cereus-associated food poisoning. Homocereulide is a cyclic dodecadepsipeptide composed of L-O-Val-L-Val-D-O-Leu-D-Ala and L-O-allo-Ile-D-Val-D-O-Leu-D-Ala. Here, we synthesized homocereulide using liquid phase fragment condensation. The NMR spectrum of synthesized homocereulide confirmed the intended structure and LC-MS results were consistent with natural products. Morphological evaluation using HEp-2 cells showed higher toxicity with homocereulide (1.39 nM) than cereulide (3.95 nM). Though cereulide is the main component in broth culture, homocereulide is also likely involved in B. cereus-associated food poisoning.
