Biosynthetic precursors of fungal pyrrolizidines, the loline alkaloids.
Loline alkaloids are saturated pyrrolizidines with a substituted 1-amino group and an oxygen bridge between C2 and C7, and are insecticidal metabolites of plant-symbiotic fungi (endophytes). Cultures of the endophyte, Neotyphodium uncinatum, incorporated labeled L-proline and L-homoserine into the 1-aminopyrrolizidine, N-formylloline. The A-ring carbons C1-C3 and the N1 were derived from L-homo...
متن کاملMetabolic Origins and Transport of Vitamin E Biosynthetic Precursors
Tocochromanols are organic compounds mostly produced by photosynthetic organisms that exhibit vitamin E activity in animals. They result from the condensation of homogentisate with four different polyprenyl side chains derived all from geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate. The core tocochromanol biosynthesis has been investigated in several photosynthetic organisms and is now well-characterized. In con...
متن کاملUrinary excretion of morphine and biosynthetic precursors in mice.
It has been firmly established that humans excrete a small but steady amount of the isoquinoline alkaloid morphine in their urine. It is unclear whether it is of dietary or endogenous origin. There is no doubt that a simple isoquinoline alkaloid, tetrahydropapaveroline (THP), is found in human and rodent brain as well as in human urine. This suggests a potential biogenetic relationship between ...
متن کاملFerribactins as the biosynthetic precursors of the Pseudomonas siderophores pyoverdins.
By a feeding experiment with a 15N-labelled precursor it is shown that ferribactins are transformed into pyoverdins and thus are their biogenetic precursors.
متن کاملInhibition of arginyl-transfer ribonucleic acid synthetase activity of Escherichia coli by arginine biosynthetic precursors.
The arginine biosynthetic precursors, ornithine, citrulline, and argininosuccinate, inhibit arginyl-transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) synthetase (EC 6.1.1.13, arginine: soluble RNA ligase, adenosine monophosphate) activity in the in vitro attachment assay system. Ornithine is the most potent, argininosuccinate is next, and citrulline is least effective. The implications of these results are disc...
