Metabolite Identification
Common NameAstechrome
DescriptionAstechrome is a secondary metabolite belonging to the class of nonribosomal peptides. Its chemical structure is characterized by a complex arrangement of amino acids and iron coordination, particularly highlighted in its derivative, hexadehydro-astechrome (HAS), which is synthesized through a nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) pathway. This metabolite is involved in various biochemical pathways, including those related to fungal pathogenicity, as evidenced by its presence in the genome of the biocontrol strain Fusarium oxysporum Fo47, where it contributes to host specificity (PMID:25925221 ). Additionally, the transcriptional activity of the hexadehydro-astechrome cluster has been shown to vary depending on carbon availability, indicating its regulatory role in metabolic responses to environmental conditions (PMID:36422047 ). Comparative metabolomics studies have identified HAS as a significant product of the NRPS gene cluster in the human pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus, underscoring its potential importance in pathogenic mechanisms (PMID:23360537 ). Overall, astechrome and its derivatives exemplify the intricate interplay between microbial metabolism and pathogenicity.
