Unlike other bacteria, aerobic members of the order Actinomycetales show a close biochemical relationship to the fungi by their capacity to synthesize hercynine and ergothioneine. The myxomycete Physarum polycephalum, possessing the same synthetic ability, also shows this relationship. Contrariwise, the unusual position of yeasts as fungi is indicated by the inability of all yeastlike Ascomycetes and all except a few false yeasts to synthesize these two betaines.
与其他细菌不同，放线菌目的需氧成员通过合成肌氨酸和麦角硫因的能力，与真菌表现出密切的生化关系。多头绒泡菌也具有相同的合成能力，同样显示出这种关系。相反，所有类酵母子囊菌以及除少数假酵母外的所有酵母都无法合成这两种甜菜碱，这表明酵母作为真菌处于不同寻常的地位。
