On the role of 17-OH-19-epi-cathenamine in the biosynthesis of heteroyohimbine alkaloids [Catharanthus roseus]

Abstract 17-OH-19-epi-Cathenamine (10) -which is known to be a precursor of 19-epi-ajmalicine (7) under biomimetic conditions - is NOT involved in the biosynthetic formation of 7. 10 does, however, undergo enzymatic reduction to 17-OH-19-epi-ajmalicine (11) in the presence of cell-free extracts of C...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract 17-OH-19-epi-Cathenamine (10) -which is known to be a precursor of 19-epi-ajmalicine (7) under biomimetic conditions - is NOT involved in the biosynthetic formation of 7. 10 does, however, undergo enzymatic reduction to 17-OH-19-epi-ajmalicine (11) in the presence of cell-free extracts of CATHARANTHUS ROSEUS cell suspension cultures and NADPH.
