Structure of methanofuran, the carbon dioxide reduction factor of Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum

The structure of the carbon dioxide reduction factor from M. thermoautotrophicum has been assigned by analysis of the intact molecule and its hydrolytic fragments as 4-(N-(4,5,7-tricarboxyheptanoyl- gamma -L-glutamyl- gamma -L-glutamyl)-p-( beta -aminoethyl)phenoxymethyl)-2-(aminomethyl)furan.

Zusammenfassung:The structure of the carbon dioxide reduction factor from M. thermoautotrophicum has been assigned by analysis of the intact molecule and its hydrolytic fragments as 4-(N-(4,5,7-tricarboxyheptanoyl- gamma -L-glutamyl- gamma -L-glutamyl)-p-( beta -aminoethyl)phenoxymethyl)-2-(aminomethyl)furan. High-resolution NMR spectroscopy and FAB, FD, and EI mass spectrometry were used, with FABMS being decisive. The trivial name methanofuran is proposed for the carbon dioxide reduction factor.
