Caffeoyl-catalpol, isoferuloyl-catalpol, protocatechuoyl-catalpol, benzoyl-catalpol, p-hydroxybenzoyl catalpol (catalposide), vanilloyl-catalpol and cinnamoyl-aucubin have been isolated from several Veronica species (Scrophulariaceae) in a more or less pure state. The first four compounds have never been recorded in plants before. A PC survey of forty-three species of the genus sensu lato has shown a general presence of aucubin and catalpol. They are accompanied in many of the species by a complex mixture of esters, especially esters of catalpol with aromatic acids. In only one species have aucubin esters been found. Loganin has been identified in five species, this being the first time that this compound has been found in the Scrophulariaceae. Loganin is accompanied by unidentified loganin esters in the same five species. From the systematic point of view the complex mixtures of esters of catalpol in Veronica seem to be noteworthy. Species of Globularia, Erinus, Scrophularia Verbascum, Wulfenia, Catalpa and Plantago investigated either totally lacked ester glucosides in leaves or contained mainly different types of esters. The possible systematic meaning of these results is briefly discussed. 相似文献

Stereochemistry of the biomimetic reduction of α-keto esters with NAD(P)H-model compounds has been investigated. The model compound with the R-configuration reduces the α-keto esters to the (R)-α-hydroxy esters, whereas (S)-α-hydroxy esters are afforded by the reduction with the S-configurational model compounds. It has been concluded that pro-R and -S hydrogens of the model compounds with R- and S-configuration, respectively, contribute predominantly to the reduction. 相似文献

Degradation of phorbol esters by Pseudomonas aeruginosa PseA during solid-state fermentation of deoiled Jatropha curcas seed cake 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Large amount of seed cake is generated as by-product during biodiesel production from Jatropha seeds. Presence of toxic phorbol esters restricts its utilization as livestock feed. Safe disposal or meaningful utilization of this major by-product necessitates the degradation of these phorbol esters. The present study describes the complete degradation of phorbol esters by Pseudomonas aeruginosa PseA strain during solid state fermentation (SSF) of deoiled Jatropha curcas seed cake. Phorbol esters were completely degraded in nine days under the optimized SSF conditions viz. deoiled cake 5.0 g; moistened with 5.0 ml distilled water; inoculum 1.5 ml of overnight grown P. aeruginosa; incubation at temperature 30 °C, pH 7.0 and RH 65%.SSF of deoiled cake seems a potentially viable approach towards the complete degradation of the toxic phorbol esters. 相似文献

Indole-3-acetyl-myo-inositol esters have been demonstrated to be endogenous components of etiolated Zea mays shoots tissue. This was accomplished by comparison of the putative compounds with authentic, synthetic esters. The properties compared were liquid and gas-liquid chromatographic retention times and the 70-ev mass spectral fragmentation pattern of the pentaacetyl derivative. The amount of indole-3-acetyl-myo-inositol esters in the shoots was determined to be 74 nanomoles per kilogram fresh weight as measured by isotope dilution, accounting for 19% of the ester indole-3-acetic acid of the shoot. This work is the first characterization of an ester conjugate of indole-3-acetic acid from vegetative shoot tissue using multiple chromatographic properties and mass spectral identification. The kernel and the seedling shoot both contain indole-3-acetyl-myo-inositol esters, and these esters comprise approximately the same percentage of the total ester content of the kernel and of the shoot. 相似文献

Caffeic acid has been widely recognized as a versatile pharmacophore for synthesis of new chemical entities, among which caffeic acid derived phenethyl esters and amides are the most extensively-investigated bioactive compounds with potential therapeutical applications. However, the natural biosynthetic routes for caffeic acid derived phenethyl esters or amides remain enigmatic, limiting their bio-based production. Herein, product-directed design of biosynthetic schemes allowed the development of thermodynamically favorable pathways for these compounds via acyltransferase (ATF) mediated trans-esterification. Production based screening identified a microbial O-ATF from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and a plant N-ATF from Capsicum annuum capable of forming caffeic acid derived esters and amides, respectively. Subsequent combinatorial incorporation of caffeic acid with various aromatic alcohol or amine biosynthetic pathways permitted the de novo bacterial production of a panel of caffeic acid derived phenethyl esters or amides in Escherichia coli for the first time. Particularly, host strain engineering via systematic knocking out endogenous caffeoyl-CoA degrading thioesterase and pathway optimization via titrating co-substrates enabled production enhancement of five caffeic acid derived phenethyl esters and amides, with titers ranging from 9.2 to 369.1 mg/L. This platform expanded the capabilities of bacterial production of high-value natural aromatic esters and amides from renewable carbon source via tailoring non-natural biosynthetic pathways. 相似文献

We synthesized several candidates of 24(S)-hydroxycholesterol (24S-OHC) esters, which are involved in neuronal cell death, through catalysis with acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase-1 (ACAT-1). We studied the regioselectivity of the acylation of the secondary alcohol at the 3- or 24-position of 24S-OHC. The appropriate saturated and unsaturated long-chain fatty acids were esterified with the protected 24S-OHC and then de-protected to afford the desired esters at a satisfactory yield. We then confirmed by HPLC monitoring that the retention times of four esters of 24S-OHC, namely 3-oleate, 3-linoleate, 3-arachidonoate and 3-docosahexaenoate, were consistent with those of 24S-OHC esters observed in 24S-OHC-treated SH-SY5Y cells. 相似文献

This paper describes the production of isoprenoid wax esters during the aerobic degradation of 6,10,14-trimethylpentadecan-2-one and phytol by four bacteria (Acinetobacter sp. strain PHY9, Pseudomonas nautica [IP85/617], Marinobacter sp. strain CAB [DSMZ 11874], and Marinobacter hydrocarbonoclasticus [ATCC 49840]) isolated from the marine environment. Different pathways are proposed to explain the formation of these compounds. In the case of 6,10,14-trimethylpentadecan-2-one, these esters result from the condensation of some acidic and alcoholic metabolites produced during the biodegradation, while phytol constitutes the alcohol moiety of most of the esters produced during growth on this isoprenoid alcohol. The amount of these esters formed increased considerably in N-limited cultures, in which the ammonium concentration corresponds to conditions often found in marine sediments. This suggests that the bacterial formation of isoprenoid wax esters might be favored in such environments. Although conflicting evidence exists regarding the stability of these esters in sediments, it seems likely that, under some conditions, bacterial esterification can enhance the preservation potential of labile compounds such as phytol. 相似文献

To develop effective and safe penetration enhancers, a series of l-carvyl esters, namely, 5-isopropenyl-2-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl heptanoate (C-HEP), 5-isopropenyl-2- methylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl octanoate (C-OCT), 5-isopropenyl-2-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl decanoate (C-DEC), 5-isopropenyl-2-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl dodecanoate (C-DOD), 5-isopropenyl-2-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl tetradecanoate (C-TET), and 5-isopropenyl-2-methylcyclohex-2-en-1-yl palmitate (C-PAL), was synthesized from l-carveol and saturated fatty acids (C7–C16). The volatility of l-carveol and l-carvyl esters was evaluated by a live weight loss experiment. The enhancing effects of l-carvyl esters on 5-fluorouracil (FU) were investigated in the in vitro permeation experiment on rat skin. The stratum corneum (SC) uptakes of the enhancers were tested in vitro by gas chromatography. Only the l-carvyl esters with a moderate SC uptake, namely, C-OCT (C8), C-DEC (C10), and C-DOD (C12), showed a potential to enhance FU skin permeation. An evident parabolic relationship was found between the permeation enhancement of FU and the SC uptake of the l-carvyl esters. The l-carvyl esters with a chain length of C8–C12 seemed to be favorable for FU. 相似文献

4-Methylumbelliferyl esters of amino acid derivatives have been synthesized using the carbodiimide, disulphite and carbonate methods. Of these, the first was shown capable of preparing 2-naphthyl and 4-methylumbelliferyl esters of benzoylglycine, benzyloxycarbonyl glycine and benzyloxycarbonyl-citrulline but not of benzoyl-NG-nitroarginine. 2-Naphthyl benzoyl-NG-nitroargininate was prepared successfully using di(2-naphthyl)sulphite. Bis(4-methylumbelliferyl)sulphite could not be prepared but 4-methylumbelliferyl benzoyl-NG-nitroargininate was obtained by the use of an equilibrium method using diphenyl sulphite in the presence of 4-methylumbelliferone. A new reagent, phenyl 4-methylumbelliferyl carbonate, was synthesized and used for the preparation of the 4-methylumbelliferyl esters of benzoylglycine, benzyloxycarbonylglycine and benzoyl-NG-nitroarginine. The 4-methylumbelliferyl esters of benzyloxycarbonylglycine and benzyloxycarbonylcitrulline were shown to be good substrates for the assay of proteases, including chymotrypsin (EC 3.4.21.1) and trypsin (EC 3.4.21.4). Disadvantages of 4-methylumbelliferyl esters are discussed. 相似文献

Fourteen daucane esters together with a known propiophenone 3,4-methylenedioxy-5-hydroxy-propiophenone, were isolated from Ferula communis subsp. communis. Except for the 6-(p-anisic acid) ester of jaeschkeanadiol all these esters are new. Structures were elucidated using spectral properties of the esters and their partial hydrolysis products. X-ray diffraction analysis of one of the compounds confirmed its structure including the stereochemical assignments made on the basis of spectral data. 相似文献

An improved method of fractionating the myoinositol esters of indoleacetic acid (IAA) from maize kernels by gas-liquid chromatography has been developed. Mass spectrometry was employed as an aid in identification of the esters. Maize kernels contain three groups of esters of IAA: (a) IAA myoinositols, (b) IAA myoinositol arabinosides, and (c) IAA myoinositol galactosides. Each group has three chromatographically distinguishable isomers. The glycosylinositols described are unique in that carbon 1 of the sugar is attached to the hydroxyl at C-5 of the myoinositol. 相似文献

The total fractions of choline esters have been isolated from different parts of Sinapis alba. 4-Hydroxybenzoylcholine has been identified and found to be one of the quantitatively dominating choline esters in seed extracts of S. alba. The identity of the new natural product has been confirmed by comparison with synthetic reference compounds. Several different choline esters are present in this plant but in extracts of seedlings, leaves, and inflorescences they are not so quantitatively dominating as in seeds. The modified ion-exchange technique applied appeared to be an efficient tool in the isolation and separation of choline esters and amines from other types of phenolic plant constituents. 相似文献

1-O-(Acylaminoacyl)-2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-D-glucopyranoses were prepared in high yields by two routes involving direct participation of imidazole in the ester linkage formation; namely, (a) the accelerated active-ester method, and (b) the imidazole-promoted dicyclohexylcarbodiimide condensation. The compounds were synthesized from 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-benzyl-α-D-glucopyranose and pentachlorophenyl esters of optically active benzyloxycarbonyl- and tert-butyloxycarbonyl-amino acids in method (a) or benzyloxycarbonyl- and acetyl-amino acids in method (b). By both methods, anomeric mixtures of D-glucosyl esters were obtained; they were resolved by column chromatography and the α and β anomers were fully characterized. The retention of configuration of the amino acid moiety was determined from optical rotations of acylamino acid methyl esters formed from D-glucosyl esters with methanolic sodium methoxide. With benzyloxycarbonyl and tert-butyloxycarbonyl protecting groups, a high degree of retention of optical activity was established in both methods-method (a) being slightly superior. 相似文献

GC-MS properties of three isomeric esters of indole-3-acetic acid and myoinositol, three esters of indole-3-acectic acid and myoinositol arabinoside and three esters of indole-3-acetic acid and myoinositol galactoside are presented. MS fragmentation patterns for the four possible pentamethyl myoinositols are also shown. These data indicated that the arabinose, and galactose of the glycosides were in the pyranose form and that C-1 of the sugar was linked to the 5 hydroxyl of myoinositol. Homologies in fragmentation patterns for the esters and the glycoside esters, together with knowledge of the properties of 2-O-indole-3-acetyl-myoinositol, permitted identification of one of the arabinosides as 5-O-l-arabinopyranosyl-2-O-indole-3-acetyl-myoinositol and one of the galactosides as 5-O-d- galactopyranosyl-2-O-indole-3-acetyl-myoinositol. The remaining two GLC peaks observed for the arabinoside were then, most likely, the two mixtures of diastereoisomers 1 d- and 1 l-5-O-l-arabinopryranosyl-1-O-indole-3-acetyl myoinositol and 1 d- and 1 l-5-O-l-arabinopyranosyl-4-O-indole-3-acetyl-myoinositol. The remaining two GLC peaks observed for the galactoside would then be the 1 d and 1 l-5-O-d-galactopyranosyl-1-O-indole-3-acetyl-myoinositol and 1 d- and 1 l-5-O-d- galactopyranosyl-4-O-indoleacetyl-myoinositol. 相似文献

Epoxides of methyl esters of elaidic and oleic acids were allowed to react with methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, iso-propanol and n-butanol, in the presence of iodine, to give the corresponding alkoxyhydroxy methyl esters. Ethyl elaidate epoxide gave a hydroxymethoxy methyl ester when treated with boron trifluoride in methanol but the ethyl ester group was not attacked with iodine as catalyst. Mass spectra of the alkoxyhydroxy esters contained strong peaks which demonstrated the location in the chain of the original epoxide ring. Iodine also catalysed the addition of water to methyl elaidate or oleate, giving erythro- and threo-9,10-dihydroxyoctadecanoates, respectively. The alkoxyhydroxy esters were quantitatively converted to t-butyldimethylsilyl ethers by reaction with t-butyldimethylchlorosilane/imidazole/dimethylformamide reagent at 100°C but the dihydroxyoctadecanoates were not completely derivatised. Mass spectra of all the t-butyldimethylsilyl ether derivatives contained intense fragments allowing the molecular weights and the positions of the ether functions to be easily determined. 相似文献

Biologically produced wax esters can fulfil different industrial purposes. These functionalities almost drove the sperm whale to extinction from hunting. After the ban on hunting, there is a niche in the global market for biolubricants with properties similar to spermaceti. Wax esters can also serve as a mechanism for producing insect sex pheromone fatty alcohols. Pheromone-based mating disruption strategies are in high demand to replace the toxic pesticides in agriculture and manage insect plagues threatening our food and fiber reserves. In this study we set out to investigate the possibilities of in planta assembly of wax esters, for specific applications, through transient expression of various mix-and-match combinations of genes in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves. Our synthetic biology designs were outlined in order to pivot plant lipid metabolism into producing wax esters with targeted fatty acyl and fatty alcohols moieties. Through this approach we managed to obtain industrially important spermaceti-like wax esters enriched in medium-chain fatty acyl and/or fatty alcohol moieties of wax esters. Via employment of plant codon-optimized moth acyl-CoA desaturases we also managed to capture unusual, unsaturated fatty alcohol and fatty acyl moieties, structurally similar to moth pheromone compounds, in plant-accumulated wax esters. Comparison between outcomes of different experimental designs identified targets for stable transformation to accumulate specialized wax esters and helped us to recognize possible bottlenecks of such accumulation. 相似文献

Suspension cultures of Datura innoxia and Nicotiana tabacum are able to convert (RS)-tropic acid into its glucose esters (2RS)-3-hydroxy-2-phenylpropionyl β-d-glucopyranoside and (2RS)-2-O-(3-hydroxy-2-phenylpropionyl)-d-glucose whereas a cultures of Eucalyptus perriniana converts it into its glucoside (2RS)-3-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl-2-phenylpropionic acid in addition to glucose esters. Suspension cultures of Coffea arabica converts: (RS)-tropic acid into its glucose, sucrose and isotrehalose esters and a small amount of its glucoside; (RS)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionic acid into its glucose and sucrose esters and a small amount of its glucoside; and (RS)-ethyl 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionate into its gentiobioside. The formation of sucrose esters and linkage of the aglycone to the C-6 position of glucose are characteristic of the biotransformation of carboxylic acids by suspension cultures of C. arabica. The suspension culture of C. arabica selectively converted (R)-tropic acid into its isotrehalose ester on administration of (RS)-tropic acid. 相似文献

The aldehydes acetaldehyde, propanal, 2-methylpropanal, butanal, 3-methylbutanal, pentanal and hexanal, were reduced to their corresponding alcohols by incubation with strawberry fruit. The alcohols formed were then converted to their acetate, propionate, n-butyrate, isovalerate and n-caproate esters during the incubation with strawberry fruit. Simultaneous reaction of isobutyric acid, n-valeric acid and isocaproic acid with aldehyde and strawberry fruit resulted in the formation of esters of these acids. In all seven alcohols and 54 esters were produced by means of incubation of aldehydes and volatile fatty acids with strawberry fruit. 相似文献

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) hydrolase from Ideonella sakaiensis (IsPETase) can be used to degrade PET. In order to use IsPETase in industry, we studied the enzymatic activity of IsPETase in different conditions containing environmental and physicochemical factors commonly found in nature. We observed that salts and glycerol enhanced the enzymatic activity, while detergents and organic solvents reduced the enzymatic activity. IsPETase hydrolyzed p-nitrophenyl (p-NP) esters instead of naphthyl esters. To make IsPETase an enzyme capable of hydrolyzing naphthyl esters, site-directed mutagenesis was carried out based on the structural information provided by the crystal structure. We found that the IsPETaseS93M, IsPETaseW159F, and IsPETaseN241F mutants can hydrolyze naphthyl esters. IsPETase engineering can direct researchers to use this α/β-hydrolase protein scaffold to design enzymes that can hydrolyze a variety of polyesters. 相似文献

One of the major issues with heterologous production of proteins in Pichia pastoris X33 under AOX1 promoter is repeated methanol induction. To obviate repeated methanol induction, methyl esters were used as a slow release source of methanol in lipase expressing mut+ recombinant. Experimental design was based on the strategy that in presence of lipase, methyl esters can be hydrolysed to release their products as methanol and fatty acid. Hence, upon break down of methyl esters by lipase, first methanol will be used as a carbon source and inducer. Then P. pastoris can switch over to fatty acid as a carbon source for multiplication and biomass maintenance till further induction by methyl esters. We validated this strategy using recombinant P. pastoris expressing Lip A, Lip C from Trichosporon asahii and Lip11 from Yarrowia lipolytica. We found that the optimum lipase yield under repeated methanol induction after 120 h was 32866 U/L, 28271 U/L and 21978 U/L for Lip C, Lip A and Lip 11 respectively. In addition, we found that a single dose of methyl ester supported higher production than repeated methanol induction. Among various methyl esters tested, methyl oleate (0.5%) caused 1.2 fold higher yield for LipA and LipC and 1.4 fold for Lip11 after 120 h of induction. Sequential utilization of methanol and oleic acid by P. pastoris was observed and was supported by differential peroxisome proliferation studies by transmission electron microscopy. Our study identifies a novel strategy of using methyl esters as slow release methanol source during lipase expression. 相似文献
