Biosynthesis of Anatoxins in Cyanobacteria: Identification of the Carboxy-anatoxins as the Penultimate Biosynthetic Intermediates

Journal of Natural Products, 2020
Anatoxin-a, homoanatoxin-a, and dihydroanatoxin-a are potent cyanobacterial neurotoxins. They are biosynthesized in cyanobacteria from proline and acetate by a pathway involving three polyketide synthases. We report the identification of carboxy-anatoxin-a, carboxy-homoanatoxin-a, and carboxy-dihydroanatoxin-a in acidic extracts of Cuspidothrix ...

Biosynthesis of anatoxin-a and analogues (anatoxins) in cyanobacteria

Toxicon, 2014
Freshwater cyanobacteria produce secondary metabolites that are toxic to humans and animals, the so-called cyanotoxins. Among them, anatoxin-a and homoanatoxin-a are potent neurotoxins that are agonists of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. These alkaloids provoke a rapid death if ingested at low doses. Recently, the cluster of genes responsible for

Anatoxin

Chemical Communications, 2014
Anatoxin-a (AN) and homoanatoxin (HMAN) are two powerful nicotinic agonists. Symptoms of AN and HMAN toxicosis include tremors, convulsions, muscle fasciculations, and rapid death due to respiratory failure. AN is unstable under natural conditions and is naturally degraded either partially or totally to the nontoxic products dihydroanatoxin-a and ...

Analysis of Anatoxin-a by GCIECD*

Journal of Analytical Toxicology, 1988
Anatoxin-a (ANTX-a), a potent cholinergic alkaloid produced by some toxigenic strains of the cyanobacterium Anabaena flos-aquae, has been responsible for death of livestock, pets, and wildlife. An increase in the frequency of cyanobacterial blooms in fresh waters of temperate North America has produced a concomitant increase in the threat posed by ...
