Forward or reverse? The use of alternative substrates in the reaction catalyzed by the indole prenyltransferase FtmPT1 leads to novel alkaloids that are either reverse prenylated at C‐3 or normal prenylated at N‐1, C‐3, or C‐4. These results suggest that mechanisms involving C‐3 prenylation followed by rearrangement could be responsible.
