Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We reported the first C10-C5 directly bonded tetrodotoxin (TTX) analogues from newts, and proposed monoterpene origin of TTX. In this study, five novel bicyclic guanidine compounds related to TTX were isolated and their structures were determined. These structures strongly supported monoterpene origin of TTX. Although biosynthetic genes corresponding to production of STX had been reported, chemical study of intermediates were not enough. In this study, Int-A', Int-C'2, and CyclicC' were chemically synthesized, and identified in toxin producing cyanobacterium and dinoflagellate using high resolution LC-MS/MS. In addition, incorporation experiments with 15N labeled these intermediates indicated that Int-A' and Int-C'2 are genuine precursors of STX analogues and Cyclic C' is a shunt compound. This is the first shunt pathway in STX biosynthesis ever found.
