Metabolite Identification
Common NameCsypyrone B2
DescriptionCsypyrone B2 is a polyketide, a chemical class characterized by its biosynthesis through the condensation of acetyl-CoA units, typically involving polyketide synthases. It is identified as a metabolite produced by the fungus Aspergillus oryzae, specifically as a minor product of the type III polyketide synthase CsyB, alongside its homologue csypyrone B3 (PMID:23290452 ). Csypyrone B2 and B3 differ from the main product, csypyrone B1, primarily in their side chain lengths, indicating a variation in their structural complexity and potentially their biological activities (PMID:23290452 ). While the specific biological functions of csypyrone B2 remain to be fully elucidated, polyketides are known for their diverse roles in nature, including antimicrobial and antifungal properties, which may suggest a potential ecological significance for this compound in its native fungal environment.
