The biosynthesis of polyketide-derived mycotoxins.

P S Steyn1.   

Abstract

The biosynthesis of a few representative polyketide-derived mycotoxins is reviewed: patulin, citrinin, diplosporin, ochratoxin A, maltoryzine, xanthomegnin, cytochalasans, ergochromes, zearalenone, citreoviridin, and the aflatoxins. Particular attention is given to the biosynthetic sequence: acetate----averufin----versiconal acetate----versicolorin A----sterigmatocystin----aflatoxin B1.
