The biosynthesis of 2-methylisoborneol was reconstituted by elongation of dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP) with ()- and ()-2-methylisopentenyl diphosphate (2-Me-IPP) using farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FPPS), followed by terpene cyclisation. The stereochemical course of the FPPS reaction was studied in detail using stereoselectively deuterated 2-Me-IPP isotopomers.
2-甲基异莰醇的生物合成是通过法呢基二磷酸合酶(FPPS)将二甲基烯丙基二磷酸(DMAPP)与()-和()-2-甲基异戊烯基二磷酸(2-Me-IPP)延伸,然后进行萜烯环化来重新构建的。使用立体选择性氘代 2-Me-IPP 同位素物详细研究了 FPPS 反应的立体化学过程。
