Metabolite Identification
Common NameTerreinlactone B
DescriptionTerreinlactone B is a 3-substituted δ-lactone, classified as a secondary metabolite within the chemical class of lactones. It serves as a biosynthetic intermediate in the production of terreinlactone A enantiomers, which are derived from the fungal species Aspergillus terreus. The chemical structure of terreinlactone B features a cyclic ester formation typical of lactones, contributing to its reactivity and role in biosynthetic pathways. Specifically, it is proposed to be synthesized from the precursor compound (+)-terrein and is integral to the biogenetic pathway leading to terreinlactone A, marking it as a key intermediate in this metabolic route. The isolation of terreinlactone B alongside its precursors, including (+)-terrein and (+)-isoterrein, underscores its significance in the complex biosynthetic processes occurring within the producing organism. These metabolic pathways highlight the intricate chemical transformations that occur in fungal secondary metabolism, with terreinlactone B playing a pivotal role in the synthesis of bioactive compounds.
