Metabolite Identification
Common Name10,11-epoxycurvularin
Description10,11-epoxycurvularin is a polyketide metabolite isolated from Limonium tubiflorum, a plant species found in Egypt. This compound is part of a broader class of secondary metabolites known for their diverse biological activities and complex structures. In the biosynthetic pathways, polyketides like 10,11-epoxycurvularin are synthesized through the action of polyketide synthases, which catalyze the condensation of acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA units, leading to the formation of various bioactive compounds. The presence of 10,11-epoxycurvularin alongside other metabolites such as penilactone and neobulgarone G suggests its potential involvement in ecological interactions, possibly contributing to the plant's defense mechanisms or interactions with other organisms. The study of such metabolites is crucial for understanding their roles in plant biology and their potential applications in pharmacology and biotechnology (PMID:21146414 ).
