Aristolochene

This enzyme [EC 2.5.1.40] catalyzes the conversion of trms,trans-fainesyl diphosphate (or, trans,trans-farnesyl pyrophosphate) to aristolochene and diphosphate (or, pyrophosphate). The enzyme-catalyzed reaction proceeds through an initial internal transfer of the farnesyl... [Pg.64]

Most of the compounds shown in Figure 22-4 are derived from the C15 famesyl diphosphate. There are more than 300 known cyclic structures among these sesquiterpenes, and many sesquiterpene synthases have been characterized.91/91a Aristolochene is formed by the action of a 38-kDa cyclase that has been isolated from species of Penicillium and Aspergillus,92"4 Notice that the synthesis must involve two cyclization steps and migration of a methyl group. Three-dimensional structures are known for at least two terpene synthases,95 96 and comparison of gene sequences suggests that many others have similar structures. [Pg.1234]

The 5-epi-aristoIochene synthase of tobacco makes the 5-epimer of aristolochene (Fig. 22-4). It binds the diphosphate group within a central cavity using two Mg2+ ions held by carboxylates, some of which are in the DDXXD sequence found also in polyprenyl diphosphate synthases. The enzyme active sites of both the epi-aristolochene synthase and a pentale-nene synthase from Streptomyces96 are rich in polar groups that form hydrogen-bonded networks and which participate in proton abstraction and donation during the rearrangement reactions that must occur. [Pg.1234]

The formation of the sesquiterpene (+)-5-epi-aristolochene (2) represents, from a biosynthetic point of view, the transformation requiring the fewest steps among those discussed in this review. A single enzyme, tobacco 5-epi-aristolochene synthase (TEAS), converts the biosynthetic precursor, farnesyl diphosphate (6), to... [Pg.151]

Unlike the biosynthetic route to 2 and 3, the synthetic approaches to these molecules are characterized, instead, by deconstruction of terpene natural products further along the biosynthetic pathway. Preparation of (+)-5-epi-aristolochene (2) has so far only been carried out using a semisynthetic strategy from the natural product 12 [27], which is available from pepper (Capsicum annum) fruits in high quantities [28]. The synthetic route started with O-acetylation of 12 to give... [Pg.153]

Earlier work had not resolved how 5-epi-aristolochene, synthesized from FPP by the action of 5-epi-aristolochene synthase, was converted to capsidiol.
