Outline of Final Research Achievements

Fairy chemicals that cause fairy ring, 2-azahypoxanthine (AHX) and imidazole-4-carboxamide (ICA), were isolated form Lepista sordida. In plant, AHX were existed and metabolized to 2-aza-8-oxohypoxanthine (AOH). We examined the endogenous fairy chemicals in microorganisms. AHX and AOH were detected in plants and fungi. The metabolites of fairy chemicals in the plant were isolated, and then determined the structures. Currently, we are trying to identify the biosynthesis and metabolism enzymes. The yield increased production effect on the crop of AHX. An efficient AOH synthesis using resting cells was studyed.
