Metabolite Identification
Common NameWalleminone
DescriptionWalleminone is a secondary metabolite belonging to the class of fungal metabolites. It has been identified in various studies focusing on its biological activities and production conditions. Notably, exposure to walleminone, along with other metabolites like Chaetoglobosin A and chaetomugilin D, has been shown to significantly induce the production of Tnf-α, a key cytokine involved in inflammation (PMID:28535995 ). Additionally, mass spectrometric analysis has demonstrated that the presence of NaCl in the growth medium influences the production of walleminone, among other biologically active compounds (PMID:28036382 ). Specifically, increasing the NaCl concentration from 5% to 15% in the growth medium has been associated with enhanced production of walleminone and other toxic metabolites (PMID:28036382 ). Furthermore, walleminone has been detected in strains isolated from the built environment in Canada, indicating its ecological relevance and potential impact (PMID:24471934 ). Overall, walleminone represents a significant compound of interest in the study of fungal metabolites and their biological implications.
