Metabolite Identification
Common NameEremofortin A
DescriptionEremofortin A is a polyketide metabolite characterized by its role in the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites in fungi. This compound, produced by various fungal species, is implicated as a biosynthetic intermediate, particularly in the context of gene silencing studies that suggest its involvement alongside other related compounds (PMID:27921136 ). Eremofortin A exhibits significant biological activity, as evidenced by its capacity to inhibit the binding of 3H-tetrahydro-PR toxin to its antibody, with a concentration causing 50% inhibition noted at 800 ng/assay (PMID:30978841 ). Additionally, research into the in vitro metabolism of eremofortin A, particularly in relation to the Penicillium roqueforti toxin, highlights its potential relevance in toxicological studies and metabolic pathways (PMID:22144 ). Overall, eremofortin A represents an intriguing subject of study within the field of mycology and natural product chemistry, offering insights into both its chemical properties and biological implications.
