The biosynthesis of plant alkaloids and nitrogenous microbial metabolites

The biosynthesis of plant alkaloids and nitrogenous microbial metabolites

“…Results of a feeding experiment with [13C3]glycerol establish that the rn-C,N unit in ( 95) is elaborated via the shikimate pathway (see ref. 4, p. 59 for details of the likely pathway). Finally it was shown that [7-13C]-3-amino-5-hydroxybenzoic acid [as (96)] was efficiently and specifically incorporated into (95) (labelling of C-27).…”

The biosynthesis of plant alkaloids and nitrogenous microbial metabolites (1997 to 1998)

“…As previously, reference is made to background material in earlier reports in this series as well as to a monograph. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] As full coverage of the literature as possible was obtained, in part, by use of CAS Online. Jasmonic acid 1 has been identified as an important compound in the elicitation of the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites in higher plants.…”

The biosynthesis of plant alkaloids and nitrogenous microbial metabolites

“…The continuity of these reviews, which now span fifteen years, is maintained through appropriate reference to earlier Reports and to other reviews. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] In part, comprehensive access to the literature was gained through the valuable ISI Data Service at Bath. A review has been published 8 which is centred around the biosynthesis of bioactive compounds and useful macrolide antibiotics and polyketides, and the transformation of these metabolites into new compounds by microbial conversion or gene manipulation.…”
