Wen YH, Chen TJ, Jiang LY, Li L, Guo M, Peng Y, Chen JJ, Pei F, Yang JL, Wang RS, Gong T, Zhu P. Unusual (2 R,6 R)-bicyclo[3.1.1]heptane ring construction in fungal α- trans-bergamotene biosynthesis. iScience 2022; 25:104030.

Abstract
Bergamotenes are bicyclo[3.1.1]heptane sesquiterpenes found abundantly in plants and fungi. Known bergamotene derivatives all possess (2S,6S)-bergamotene backbone. In this study, two (+)-α-trans-bergamotene derivatives (1 and 2) with unusual (2R,6R) configuration were isolated and elucidated from marine fungus Nectria sp. HLS206. The first (+)-α-trans-bergamotene synthase NsBERS was characterized using genome mining and heterologous expression-based strategies. Based on homology search, we characterized another (+)-α-trans-bergamotene synthase LsBERS from Lachnellula suecica and an (+)-α-bisabolol synthase BcBOS from Botrytis cinerea. We proposed that the cyclization mechanism of (+)-α-trans-bergamotene involved endo-anti cyclization of left-handed helix farnesyl pyrophosphate by (6R)-bisabolyl cation, which was supported by molecular docking. The biosynthesis-based volatiles (3-6) produced by heterologous fungal expression systems elicited significant electroantennographic responses of Helicoverpa armigera and Spodoptera frugiperda, respectively, suggesting their potential in biocontrol of these pests. This work enriches diversity of sesquiterpenoids and fungal sesquiterpene synthases, providing insight into the enzymatic mechanism of formation of enantiomeric sesquiterpenes.

Abstract
A sesquiterpene synthase gene was identified from the transcriptome of Euphorbia fischeriana Steud, and the function of its product EfTPS12 was characterized by in vitro biochemical experiments and synthetic biology approaches. EfTPS12 catalyzed conversion of farnesyl diphosphate into three products, including cedrol (1) and eupho-acorenols A (2) and B (3) (two diastereoisomers of tricho-acorenol), thereby being named EfCAS herein. The structures of 2 and 3 were determined by spectroscopic methods and comparison of experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism spectra. EfCAS is the first example of a plant-derived sesquiterpene synthase that is capable of synthesizing acorane-type alcohols. This study also documents that synthetic biology approaches enable large-scale preparation of volatile terpenes and thereby substantially facilitate characterization of corresponding terpene synthases and elucidation of the structures of their products.

Abstract
The soft coral-derived fungus Trichoderma harzianum (XS-20090075) was found to be a potential strain to produce substantial new compounds in our previous study. In order to explore its potential to produce more metabolites, chemical epigenetic manipulation was used on this fungus to wake its sleeping genes, leading to the significant changes of its secondary metabolites by using a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor. The most obvious difference was the original main products harziane diterpenoids were changed into cyclonerane sesquiterpenoids. Three new terpenoids were isolated from the fungal culture treated with 10 μM sodium butyrate, including cleistanthane diterpenoid, harzianolic acid A (1), harziane diterpenoid, harzianone E (2), and cyclonerane sesquiterpenoid, 3,7,11-trihydroxy-cycloneran (3), together with 11 known sesquiterpenoids (4-14). The absolute configurations of 1-3 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, ECD and OR calculations, and biogenetic considerations. This was the first time to obtain cleistanthane diterpenoid and africane sesquiterpenoid from genus Trichoderma, and this was the first chlorinated cleistanthane diterpenoid. These results demonstrated that the chemical epigenetic manipulation should be an efficient technique for the discovery of new secondary metabolites from marine-derived fungi.

Abstract
Seven previously unknown sesquiterpenoids and norsesquiterpenoids, rhodocoranes F-L (1-7), were isolated from the fermentation broth of the basidiomycete Rhodotus palmatus. Their structures were elucidated utilizing 1D and 2D NMR techniques as well as HRESIMS; they are unusual noracorane, spiro[4.4]nonene, and acorane-type sesquiterpenoids. They include the first naturally occurring cyclopentylidenefuranones (3-5) and the new tricyclic scaffold of 7. Metabolites 1-7 exhibited a general mild antimycotic activity, while 1-3 also displayed cytotoxic effects.

Abstract
Isotopic labeling experiments performed with a newly identified bacterial trichoacorenol synthase established a 1,5-hydride shift occurring in the cyclization mechanism. During EI-MS analysis, major fragments of the sesquiterpenoid were shown to arise via cryptic hydrogen movements. Therefore, the interpretation of earlier results regarding the cyclization mechanism obtained by feeding experiments in Trichoderma is revised.

Abstract
Analysis of the volatile terpenes produced by seven fungal strains of the genus Trichoderma by use of a closed-loop stripping apparatus (CLSA) revealed a common production of harzianone, a bioactive, structurally unique diterpenoid consisting of a fused tetracyclic 4,7,5,6-membered ring system. The terpene cyclization mechanism was studied by feeding experiments using selectively 13 C- and 2 H-labeled synthetic mevalonolactone isotopologues, followed by analysis of the incorporation patterns by 13 C NMR spectroscopy and GC/MS. The structure of harzianone was further supported from a 13 C,13 C COSY experiment of the in-vivo-generated fully 13 C-labeled diterpene.

Abstract
![]()
A highly
selective cascade reaction that allows the direct transformation of
dienallenes to spirocyclobutenes (spiro[3.4]octenes) as single diastereoisomers
has been developed. The reaction involves formation of overall four
C–C bonds and proceeds via a palladium-catalyzed oxidative
transformation with insertion of olefin, olefin, and carbon monoxide.
Under slightly different reaction conditions, an additional CO insertion
takes place to give spiro[4.4]nonenes with formation of overall five
C–C bonds.

Abstract
The fungus Fusarium fujikuroi IMI58289 emits a complex pattern of volatile terpenoids including two major compounds, the sesquiterpene alcohol α-acorenol and the diterpene ent-kaurene. ent-Kaurene is the precursor for the phytohormone gibberellic acid (GA(3)) and is produced from geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP) via ent-copalyl diphosphate by the bifunctional ent-copalyl diphosphate/ent-kaurene synthase (CPS/KS). Several structurally related diterpenes were identified as side products of the CPS/KS. Deletion of the cps/ks gene or the whole GA(3) biosynthetic gene cluster resulted in completely abolished diterpene production. Mutants with deletions of the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase gene P450-4, which is responsible for the three oxidation steps from ent-kaurene to ent-kaurenoic acid en route to GA(3), accumulate diterpene hydrocarbons. Feeding with [6,6,6-(2) H(3)] mevalonolactone gave insights into the stereochemistry of the GGPP cyclisation, which operates with a chair-chair-"antipodal" fold. A rational biosynthetic scheme for all identified sesquiterpenes demonstrated their formation from farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) via three alternative initial cyclisations. Genome sequencing revealed the presence of five putative sesquiterpene synthase genes in the F. fujikuroi genome. The structures of several trace compounds from other classes have been identified as new natural products; these were delineated from their mass spectra and unambiguously assigned by comparison to synthetic references.
