Oxidative cyclizations are important transformations that occur widely during natural product
biosynthesis. The transformations from acyclic precursors to cyclized products can afford …

Covering: up to September 2015 Meroterpenoids are hybrid natural products that partially
originate from the terpenoid pathway. The meroterpenoids derived from fungi display quite …

Covering: up to mid-2020 Terpenoids, also called isoprenoids, are the largest and most
structurally diverse family of natural products. Found in all domains of life, there are over 80 …

Enzyme‐mediated cascade reactions are widespread in biosynthesis. To facilitate
comparison with the mechanistic categorizations of cascade reactions by synthetic chemists …

P450 TleB catalyzes the oxidative cyclization of the dipeptide N-methylvalyl-tryptophanol
into indolactam V through selective intramolecular C–H bond amination at the indole C4 …

Covering: up to July 2019 Terpene synthases (TSs) are responsible for generating much of
the structural diversity found in the superfamily of terpenoid natural products. These elegant …

Marine indole alkaloids comprise a large and steadily growing group of secondary
metabolites. Their diverse biological activities make many compounds of this class attractive …

Covering: from 2000 up to the very early part of 2023 S-Adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) is a
naturally occurring trialkyl sulfonium molecule that is typically associated with biological …

This Minireview summarises recent developments in the biosynthesis of diterpenes by
diterpene synthases in bacteria. It is structured by the class of enzyme involved in the first …

Attachment of isoprene units to various acceptors by prenylation plays an important role in
primary and secondary metabolism of living organisms. Protein prenylation belongs to …
