As was true with the berkeleylactones, there was no evidence of the berkeleypenostatins in either axenic culture. The structures were deduced from analyses of spectral data, and the absolute configuration of berkeleypenostatin A (1) was determined by single–crystal X–ray crystallography. Berkeleypenostatins A (1) and E (5) inhibited migration of human pancreatic carcinoma cells (HPAF–II). Both compounds were tested by the NCI Developmental Therapeutics Program. In the NCI 60 cell five–dose screen, berkeleypenostatin E (5) was the more active of the two, with 1–10 μM total growth inhibition (TGI) of all leukemia cell lines, as well as the majority of colon, CNS, melanoma, ovarian, prostate, renal, and breast cancer cell lines.
