✦ Synopsis


Feeding of [13C2]acetate to hairy roots of Ajuga reptans var. atropurpurea followed by 13C.NM R analysis of the biosynthesized cholesterol and 20-hydroxyecdysone indicated that C-25 hydroxylation in 20-hydroxyecdysone biosynthesis proceeds both in retention and inversion mechanisms. Feeding studies of [26 -13C]-and [27-13C]cholesterols established that the ratio of retention and inversion mechanisms is ca. 3:1.

Biosynthesis of clerosterol, (24S)-ethylcholesta-5,25-dien-3b-ol (1), involves transfer of the methyl group from S-adenosylmethionine to the C-28 position of a 24-methylene-sterol precursor. The resulting C-24 cationic species undergoes migration of hydrogen from C-25 to C-24, followed by deprotonat

Feeding studies of six 13 C-labeled sterols, including clerosterol, to hairy roots of Ajuga reptans var. atropurpurea have established that clerosterol is a precursor of three phytoecdysteroids, cyasterone, isocyasterone and 29-norcyasterone.
