Biosynthesis of resorcylic acid lactone lasiodiplodin in Lasiodiplodia theobromae
The biosynthesis of lasiodiplodin (1) and its (5S)-5-hydroxylated derivative (2) were investigated by the administration of 13 C-labeled acetates to Lasiodiplodia theobromae. The labeling patterns of biosynthetically 13 C-labeled 1 and 2 were determined by 13 C-NMR and INADEQUATE spectra, demonstrat...

Summary: | The biosynthesis of lasiodiplodin (1) and its (5S)-5-hydroxylated derivative (2) were investigated by the administration of
13
C-labeled acetates to Lasiodiplodia theobromae. The labeling patterns of biosynthetically
13
C-labeled 1 and 2 were determined by
13
C-NMR and INADEQUATE spectra, demonstrating the octaketide origins of 1 and 2. Taking into account the biosynthetic study of resorcylic acid lactones, the involvement of highly reduced acyl intermediates in the biosynthesis of lasiodiplodins was presumed; thus, we synthesized
2
H-labeled hypothetical acyl intermediates of 1, 9-hydroxydecanoic acid (4) and its N-acetylcysteamine thioester (SNAC, 5). When L. theobromae was incubated with 5 mM of a
2
H-labeled intermediate, the
2
H-label from the intermediate was incorporated at the expected position of 1. These incorporation studies revealed that 1 was produced via a pathway which closely resembles that of resorcylic acid lactone biosynthesis. |
