Peculiarities of meroterpenoids and their bioproduction
Meroterpenoids are a class of terpenoid-containing hybrid natural products with impressive structural architectures and remarkable pharmacological activities. Remarkable advances in enzymology and synthetic biology have greatly contributed to the elucidation of the molecular basis for their biosynthesis.

A modular synthesis of tetracyclic meroterpenoid antibiotics [PDF]
Polycyclic meroterpenoids show a wide range of biological activities. Here, the authors report a modular approach to synthesize a number of natural and non-natural tetracyclic meroterpenoids, which display antibiotic activity against methicillin ...

A radical approach to diverse meroterpenoids [PDF]
Meroterpenoids are mixed terpenoid–polyketide natural products with a variety of biological activities. Now, a synthetic approach that combines biocatalytic oxidation with a range of other radical-based reactions enables the divergent synthesis of eight oxidized meroterpenoid natural products and one analogue.

Meroterpenoids? A historical and critical review of this biogenetic determinant
The word meroterpenoid was introduced by Conforth to qualify a biosynthetic pathway. Its use as natural products is at the origin of exclusions and confusions which are discussed here.

Biomimetic Total Synthesis of the Rubiginosin Meroterpenoids
Total synthesis of the Rhododendron meroterpenoids rubiginosins A and G, which both contain unusual 6-6-6-4 ring systems, has been achieved using a bioinspired cascade approach. Stepwise synthesis of these natural products, and the related 6-6-5-4 meroterpenoids fastinoid B and rhodonoid B, from naturally occurring chromene precursors is also reported.

Production of non-natural 5-methylorsellinate-derived meroterpenoids in Aspergillus oryzae
Fungal meroterpenoids are diverse structurally intriguing molecules with various biological properties. One large group within this compound class is derived from the aromatic precursor 3,5-dimethylorsellinic acid (DMOA).
