Biosynthesis of antheridic acid, the principal antheridiogen in Anemia phyllitidis
摘要:
[(H2)-H-2]9,15-Cyclo-GA9 and [(H2)-H-2]3-alpha-hydroxy-9,15-cyclo-GA9 were fed to prothallia of the fern, Anemia phyllitidis. The metabolites from these feeds were subjected to full-scan GC-MS to confirm the conversion of [(H2)-H-2]9,15-cyclo-GA9 into [(H2)-H-2]3-alpha-hydroxy-9,15-cyclo-GA9 and [(H2)-H-2]antheridic acid, and of [(H2)-H-2]3-alpha-hydroxy-9,15-cyclo-GA9 into [(H2)-H-2]antheridic acid. These results indicated that antheridic acid is biosynthesized from 9,15-cyclo-GA9 via 3-alpha-hydroxy-9,15-cyclo-GA9 in A. phyllitidis. It was also shown that 3-alpha-hydroxy-9,15-cyclo-GA9 is a native antheridiogen in A. phyllitidis. Biological activity of 9,15-cyclo-GA9 and 3-alpha-hydroxy-9,15-cyclo-GA9 are also reported.
