In the nematode model organisms Caenorhabditis elegans and Pristionchus pacificus, a new class of natural products based on modular assembly of primary-metabolism-derived building blocks control organismal development and behavior. We report identification and biological activities of the first pentamodular metabolite, pasa#9, and the 8-oxoadenine-containing npar#3 from P. pacificus. These structures suggest co-option of nucleoside and tryptophan metabolic pathways for the biosynthesis of endogenous metabolite libraries that transcend the dichotomy between “primary” and “secondary” metabolism.
