Metabolite Identification
Common NameGrixazone B
DescriptionGrixazone B is a phenoxazinone, a chemical class known for its diverse biological activities, including potential applications in agriculture and medicine. This compound was identified as part of the chemical profiling of a Streptomyces griseus strain, which was isolated from an old building with moisture damage, alongside other novel metabolites (PMID:20715808 ). The biosynthesis of grixazone B involves several key intermediates, notably the conversion of 3-amino-4-hydroxybenzoic acid (3,4-AHBA) to 3-amino-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (3,4-AHBAL), a process mediated by the genes griC and griD within the grixazone biosynthesis gene cluster (PMID:17617696 ). Additionally, the gene griG, which encodes a benzoate transporter homologue, is implicated in enhancing the membrane permeability for 3,4-AHBA, although it is not essential for grixazone biosynthesis (PMID:17617696 ). Furthermore, the genes griI and griH are responsible for the in vivo production of 3,4-AHBA, even in Escherichia coli (PMID:17003031 ). GriF, a novel o-aminophenol oxidase, plays a crucial role in forming the phenoxazinone chromophore in the biosynthetic pathway (PMID:16282322 ). Grixazone B has also been noted for its parasiticidal properties (PMID:15152808 ).
