Metabolite Identification
Common NameHop-21-ene
DescriptionHop-21-ene is a polycyclic triterpenic hydrocarbon belonging to the chemical class of hopanoids, which are structurally related to sterols and play significant roles in the membranes of various organisms. This compound has been identified in the hydrocarbon fraction of the bacterium Zymomonas mobilis, alongside other related metabolites such as hop-17(21)-ene and neohop-12-ene, indicating its relevance in microbial biochemistry and potential applications in biotechnology (PMID:11377875 ). Additionally, hop-21-ene is noted as part of a broader group of elongated hopanoids, which suggests its involvement in complex biochemical pathways and interactions within microbial communities (PMID:15668001 ). The presence of hop-21-ene in various microbial species underscores its importance in understanding the evolutionary and functional aspects of membrane composition and stability in prokaryotes.
