Intermediates With Biosynthetic Implications In De Novo Production Of Phenyl-Phenalenone-Type Phytoalexins By Musa acuminata Revised Structure Of Emenolone
Luis, Javier G.,Fletcher, Winston Q.,Echeverri, Fernando,Grillo, Teresa A.,Perales, Aurea,Gonzalez, Jose A.
, p. 4117 - 4130 (1995)
Three new intermediates (1-3) in de novo biosynthetic pathway to phenyl-phenalenone-type phytoalexins have been isolated from rhizomes of Musa acuminata infected with the fungus Fusarium oxysporum.The structures of the new pre-phytoalexins were elucidated
Variability of phenylpropanoid precursors in the biosynthesis of phenylphenalenones in Anigozanthos preissii
Schmitt, Bettina,Hoelscher, Dirk,Schneider, Bernd
, p. 331 - 337 (2007/10/03)
Feeding experiments using 13C labelled precursors and NMR spectroscopic studies revealed general biosynthetic incorporation of phenylalanine and variable incorporation of cinnamic acid, p-coumaric acid, caffeic acid and ferulic acid into phenylphenalenones in root cultures of Anigozanthos preissii. Evidence was obtained for parallel pathways of phenylphenalenone biosynthesis, with respect to the left phenylpropanoid unit, and a sequence involving utilisation of p-coumaric acid with late generation of an intermediate catechol moiety in the right phenylpropanoid unit.
