Common Namechanoclavine-I aldehyde
DescriptionChanoclavine-I aldehyde is a member of the chemical class of alkaloids, specifically an important intermediate in the biosynthesis of ergot alkaloids. It is produced from chanoclavine-I through the action of enzymes such as EasDaf and FgaDH (PMID:38713233 ). This compound plays a crucial role in various biosynthetic pathways; for instance, in Metarhizium brunneum, an easA knockout strain accumulates chanoclavine-I aldehyde, highlighting its significance as a precursor (PMID:37432119 ). The genome of Penicillium camemberti contains a gene cluster responsible for synthesizing chanoclavine-I aldehyde, which is essential for producing ergot alkaloids, with additional genes potentially modifying it into other derivatives (PMID:30076193 ). Furthermore, chanoclavine-I aldehyde can be converted into festuclavine by the combined action of the old yellow enzyme FgaOx3 and festuclavine synthase FgaFS (PMID:21898587 ). It is also proposed to branch into various pathways leading to clavine-type alkaloids and ergopeptines, indicating its central role in the complex network of alkaloid biosynthesis within fungi (PMID:21494745 ).
