Xxxviii. Studies in the Biochemistry of Micro-organisms. Xli. the Metabolic Products of Penicillium

IN a recent communication [Clutterbuck et al., 1934] it was shown that Penicillium Charlesii G. Smith, a new species of Penicillium isolated by our late colleague Mr J. H. V. Charles from mouldy Italian maize, produced from glucose a polygalactose and a polymannose together with a number of hitherto undescribed organic acids. Of these acids carolic and carolinic acids were obtained in the large...

IT was recently shown [Clutterbuck et al., 1934] that Penicillium Charlesii G. Smith, when grown on nutrient solutions containing glucose, produces two new polysaccharides, mannocarolose [Haworth et al., 1935] and galactocarolose, together with a number of new organic acids. The polysaccharides were isolated by precipitation from the evaporated metabolism solution with acetone, and the acids by...

Bracken, Pocker & Raistrick (1954) described the isolation of two nitrogen-containing products from different cultures of Penicillium cyclopium Westling. One of these, previously isolated from Penicillium viridicatum Westling by Cunningham & Freeman (1953) and named viridicatin, C15H11NO2, was shown to be 2,3-dihydroxy-4phenylquinoline or its keto-tautomer (I), by degradative methods and unequi...

Studies in the biochemistry of micro-organisms. 85. Cyclopolic and cyclopaldic acids, metabolic products of Penicillium cyclopium Westling.

The genus PeniciUium has been separated by Raper & Thom (1949) in their Manual of the Penicillia into fourmajor sections, Monoverticillata, Asymmetrica, Biverticillata-Symmetrica and Polyverticillata. The section Asymmetrica is further divided into five subsections: Divaricata, Velutina, Lanata, Funiculosa and Fasciculata. The subsection Asymnietrica-Fasciculata, in its turn, is subdivided into...
