Glucose esters of 3-N. (endecaphyllins) are responsible for the toxicity of Indigofera endecaphylla for grazing animals. 3-N. functions as suicide substrate of succinate dehydrogenase where the formed 3-nitro-acrylic acid adds to the active thiol group of the enzyme. The compound is formed biosynthetically in Penicillium atrovenetum from L-aspartic acid which is oxidized to the a-nitrosuccinate and then decarboxy-lated to furnish the aci-nitro form of 3-N.. Malonate and N-hydroxymalonamate appear to be intermediates in Indigofera spicata. [Pg.436]

Indospicine [L-2-amino-6-(amidino)hexanoic acid] (83) (Fig. 13.16) has been isolated from Indigofera spicata, a legume that is widely cultivated as a forage crop. The amino acid is quite toxic and causes abortion and hepatotoxicity. Nothing is known of the biosynthetic origin of indospicine (Hegarty, 1970, 1978). [Pg.227]
