The biosynthesis of ansatrienin (mycotrienin) has been studied in radioactive and stable isotope feeding experiments with Streptomyces collinus Tü 1892. The m-C7N unit of the ansa ring is efficiently and specifically derived from 3-amino-5-hydroxybenzoic acid; shikimic acid is not incorporated into this part of the molecule but does label the cyclohexanecarboyxlic acid moiety, providing all seven of its carbon atoms. Incorporation of methionine confirms origin of the methoxy group by transmethylation. The D-alanine moiety is derived directly from D-alanine rather than L-alanine. The terminal steps in the conversion of shikimic acid into cyclohexanecarboyxlic acid seem to be sequential reduction of 2,5-dihydrobenzoic acid and cyclohexene-1-carboxylic acid as evidenced by feeding experiments and the detection of a new ansatrienin containing a 1-cyclohexene instead of the cyclohexane moiety.
