Sesquiterpenoids Specially Produced by Fungi

This entry is adapted from the peer-reviewed paper 10.3390/jof7121026

Fungi are widely distributed in the terrestrial environment, freshwater, and marine habitat. Only approximately 100,000 of these have been classified although there are about 5.1 million characteristic fungi all over the world. These eukaryotic microbes produce specialized metabolites and participate in a variety of ecological functions, such as quorum detection, chemical defense, allelopathy, and maintenance of symbiosis. Fungi therefore remain an important resource for the screening and discovery of biologically active natural products. Sesquiterpenoids are arguably the richest natural products from plants and micro-organisms. The rearrangement of the 15 high-ductility carbons gave rise to a large number of different skeletons. At the same time, abundant structural variations lead to a diversification of biological activity.

1. Introduction

Fungi are undoubtedly important resources for natural products discovery. With the advancement of natural product research, the importance of its biological resources has been infinitely enlarged. In the giant natural product system of fungi, sesquiterpenes, due to their carbon skeletons and amounts, are the largest of all types. The C-15-hydrocarbon skeletal system of various sesquiterpenoids isolated from fungi, bacteria, and plants are synthesized from farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) under the catalysis of sesquiterpene synthases [1][2]. Sesquiterpene synthases catalyze different initial cyclization reactions to produce secondary or tertiary cyclic carbocation intermediates, which can then be further cyclized and reassembled until carbocation quenching at the active center, followed by the enzymatic release of the final sesquiterpenoid scaffold (Figure 1) [3]. A huge number of sesquiterpenoids were, consequently, produced [4][5][6]. Among various other resources, fungal species have an enormous contribution owing to their potential to carry out the bio-transformations and drug synthesis under environmentally acceptable conditions. For instance, hydroxymethylacylfulvene (HMAF) is a semisynthetic antitumor agent based on the naturally occurring illudin S occurring in the mushroom Omphalotus olearius [7]. It has been advanced into human clinical trials for the treatment of cancers [8][9]. Trichothecenes, a class of tricyclic sesquiterpenes produced by a wide variety of fungi, are toxic to animals and humans and frequently present in cereal crops. They have attracted much attention in the areas such as agriculture, food contamination, and health care [10][11][12][13].

Cuparane-type sesquiterpenoids of fungal origin possess a skeleton with a six-membered ring connected to a five-membered ring, of which the six-membered ring is always aromatic. Linear triquinane sesquiterpenoids have a basic skeleton 1H-cyclopenta[α]pentalene [58]. Many compounds displayed a wide range of biological activities, such as cytotoxic, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory activities. A review gives an overview about the isolation, structure, biological activities, and chemical synthesis of linear triquinane sesquiterpenoids [59].

Humulane-type sesquiterpenoids are found rarely in nature. They have been recognized as being biogenetic precursors of many types of sesquiterpenoids [6]. The macrocyclic nature of members of the humulane group has proved to be troublesome for the determination of their absolute configurations.
