Biotransformation of (-)-a-pinene by Botrytis cinerea.
نویسندگان
چکیده
(-)-alpha-Pinene (1), a major constituent of many aromatic plants was biotransformed by the plant pathogenic fungus, Botrytis cinerea to afford three new metabolites, characterized as 3beta-hydroxy-(-)-beta-pinene (10%) (3), 9-hydroxy-(-)-a-pinene (12%) (4), 4beta-hydroxy-(-)-alpha-pinene-6-one (16%) (5) by physical and spectroscopic methods. A known metabolite verbenone (2) was also obtained.

Biotransformation of two cytotoxic terpenes, alpha-santonin and sclareol by Botrytis cinerea.
Two cytotoxic terpenes, alpha-santonin (1) and sclareol (3) were biotransformed by a plant pathogenic fungus Botrytis cinerea to produce oxidized metabolites in high yields. Alpha-Santonin (1) on fermentation with the fungus for ten days afforded a hydroxylated metabolite identified as 11beta-hydroxy-alpha-santonin (2) in a high yield (83%), while sclareol (3) was metabolized to epoxysclareol (...

The object of this research was to find an alternative to fungicide for the prevention of postharvestfruits. Therefore the effect of Zataria multiflora essential oil on the quality of Sultana grapes followingthe harvest was investigated. The essential oil was extracted by hydro-distillation and analyzed using acombination of GC and GC/MS. The results indicated a high percentage of anti-fungal c...
متن کاملLinalool Biotransformation with Fungi
Different fungal strains were screened for their ability to convert linalool into valuable flavour compounds. Aspergillus niger DSM 821, Botrytis cinerea 5901/02 and Botrytis cinerea 02/FBII/2.1 produced isomers of lilac aldehyde and lilac alcohol via 8hydroxylinalool as postulated intermediate. Linalool oxides and 8-hydroxylinalool accumulated as major products during fungal linalool biotransf...
متن کاملThe mechanism of prumycin action.
Examination of the effects of prumycin on sensitlve Botrytis cinerea and Sarcina lutea showed that inhibition of protein synthesis in both organisms and reduction in ribonucleic acid synthesis in Botrytis cinerea are among the mechanisms of action. The inhibition of RNA biosynthesis in Botrytis cinerea is probably a secondary effect resulting from the termination of protein synthesis rather tha...
