Evidence is presented that is compatible with the hypothesis that the farnesyl unit involved in the biosynthesis of mycophenolic acid in Penicillium brevicompactum is degraded by two successive oxidative cleavages at the double bonds distal from the phthalide nucleus. Acetone and levulinic acid are two non-aromatic degradation products.
有证据表明，与以下假设相符：短密青霉中参与麦考酚酸生物合成的法尼基单元通过在远离苯酞核的双键处进行两次连续的氧化裂解而降解。丙酮和乙酰丙酸是两种非芳香族降解产物。
