Common Namechanoclavine-I
DescriptionChanoclavine-I is a member of the ergot alkaloid chemical class, characterized by its complex bicyclic structure. It serves as a crucial intermediate in the biosynthetic pathways of various ergot alkaloids. The synthesis of chanoclavine-I begins with the enzymatic conversion of precursor compounds, specifically through the action of EasDaf or FgaDH enzymes, which produce chanoclavine-I aldehyde (CC aldehyde) from chanoclavine-I itself (PMID:38713233 ). The subsequent transformation of CC aldehyde into chanoclavine-I acid remains poorly understood (PMID:38713233 ). In fungal systems, such as Metarhizium brunneum, an easA knockout strain has been shown to accumulate chanoclavine-I aldehyde, highlighting its role as a precursor in ergot alkaloid biosynthesis (PMID:37432119 ). The biosynthetic pathway is modular, with chanoclavine-I acting as a key junction (PMID:36987837 ). In the genome of Aspergillus camemberti, a cluster of genes required for the synthesis of chanoclavine-I aldehyde has been identified, alongside additional genes that may facilitate its modification into other alkaloids (PMID:30076193 ). Furthermore, specific enzymes have been implicated in the conversion of chanoclavine-I to its aldehyde form (PMID:28902217 ).
