Patulin from Penicillium urticae

A simple lactone, parasorbic acid, from the fruit of mountain ash, inhibits seed germination and also has antibacterial action (75). Another such compound, patulin, is produced by several fungi, including Penicillium urticae, which produced large amounts of the substance when growing on wheat straw (76). [Pg.15]

Since this chapter was written, a new epoxide, isoepoxydon, was isolated (Sekiguchi and Gaucher, 1979 a,b Gaucher, 1979). Its structure was characterized as a partially reduced derivative of ( —)-phyllostine, and its stereochemistry was elucidated. Isoepoxydon was successfully converted into patulin by a cell-free preparation from Penicillium urticae, Isoepoxydon and phyllostine are interconvertible by an NADPH-dependent dehydrogenase. [Pg.265]
