Metabolite Identification
Common Nameneopatulin
DescriptionNeopatulin is a secondary metabolite belonging to the class of polyketides. Its chemical structure features a complex arrangement of carbon rings and functional groups, characteristic of many fungal metabolites. Neopatulin is biosynthesized through a series of enzymatic reactions involving polyketide synthases, which facilitate the assembly of its carbon skeleton from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA precursors. This compound is notably involved in various metabolic pathways, including those related to the synthesis of other bioactive compounds. In particular, neopatulin has been shown to be further converted to other metabolites by enzymatic extracts, highlighting its role in the intricate network of secondary metabolism (PMID:2605253 ). The study of neopatulin and its derivatives contributes to the understanding of fungal biochemistry and the potential applications of these metabolites in pharmaceuticals and agriculture.
