Natural products of pentacyclic triterpenoids: from discovery to ...
网页2023年8月16日 · Pentacyclic triterpenoids are derived from the isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway, which generates common precursors of triterpenes and steroids, followed by cyclization with oxidosqualene cyclases (OSCs) and decoration via cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYP450s) and glycosyltransferases (GTs).
Triterpenoids: Structural diversity, biosynthetic pathway, and ...
网页2020年1月1日 · Pentacyclic triterpenoids (PCTs) constitute a diverse class of structural scaffold. Similar to tetracyclic triterpenoids, PCTs are also generated from both the carbocationic forms, viz., protosteryl cation and dammarenyl cation.
Classification, biosynthesis, and biological functions of triterpene ...
网页2024年4月8日 · In accordance with the number of rings in their skeletons, triterpenes can be classified as mono-, bi-, tri-, tetra-, and pentacyclic (Wang et al., 2021a; 2021b). Triterpenoids with 1–3 rings are less common than tetra- and pentacyclic triterpenes.
An enzymatic [4+2] cyclization cascade creates the pentacyclic …
网页2015年3月2日 · We herein report an unprecedented enzymatic [4+2] cyclization cascade that has a central role in the biosynthesis of pyrroindomycins, which are pentacyclic spirotetramate natural products.
