Characterization of Fungal Triterpene Acids by Esi
نویسندگان
چکیده
Lanostane-triterpene acids obtained from the culture of the fungus Coriolellus malicola were studied by electrospray mass spectrometry in the negative ion mode using quadrupole time-of-flight and quadrupole ion trap analysers. Despite the differences observed in the mass spectra recorded with these instruments, a set of fragment ions was found to be characteristic of the family, depending on the ∆ or ∆ skeleton and the particular functional group at C-3.

متن کاملCultural, Morphological and Molecular Characterization of Vinca Alkaloids Producing Endophytic Fungus Fusarium Solani Isolated from Catharanthus Roseus
We have isolated fifty-two endophytic fungi (AA-CRL-1 to AA-CRL52) from the leaves of Catharanthus roseus plants collected from different parts of Pune (Maharashtra, India). These endophytic fungi represented different genera and were screened for vinca alkaloids production using TLC and ESI-MS analysis. Out of the 52 endophytic fungal cultures screened, the endophytic culture AA-CRL-20 was fou...
متن کاملElectrospray ionization-mass spectrometric measurement of sake, a traditional Japanese alcohol beverage, for characterization.
A rapid method for the characterization of sake by measuring the ratio of the peak intensities of taste components in sake, using electrospray ionization/mass spectrometry (ESI/MS) has been developed. Twenty-six different kinds of sake samples were collected and analyzed by ESI/MS. The ESI/MS ion peaks were assigned to amino acids, organic acids, and sugars. Principal component analysis was per...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of an acyl-CoA:triterpene acyltransferase activity in rabbit and human tissues.
Rabbit and human tissues contain substantial amounts of an unusual lipid, a fatty acid ester of a pentacyclic triterpene, that is a potent in vitro inhibitor of acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT). A possible origin of the triterpene ester is via dietary absorption of plant triterpenes (which have a similar structure to the triterpene moiety of the animal triterpene ester), followed by ...
متن کاملTriterpene Acids from Frankincense and Semi-Synthetic Derivatives That Inhibit 5-Lipoxygenase and Cathepsin G.
Age-related diseases, such as osteoarthritis, Alzheimer's disease, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease, are often associated with chronic unresolved inflammation. Neutrophils play central roles in this process by releasing tissue-degenerative proteases, such as cathepsin G, as well as pro-inflammatory leukotrienes produced by the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) pathway. Boswellic acids (BAs) are pentacy...
