Zamir L, Devor K, Nikolakakis A, Sauriol F
Can J Microbiol . 2011 Nov; 42(8):828-34. PMID: 22049997
3-Acetyldeoxynivalenol is the major trichothecene produced by the fungus Fusarium culmorum. Studies in vivo with F. culmorum have established the following biosynthetic precursors of 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol: isotrichool → isotrichodiol → isotrichodermin ...

Zamir L, Nikolakakis A, Devor K, Sauriol F
J Biol Chem . 1996 Nov; 271(44):27353-9. PMID: 8910312
3-Acetyldeoxynivalenol is the major trichothecene produced by the fungus Fusarium culmorum. The first proven tricyclic intermediate in the biosynthesis of 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol has been shown by in vivo studies to be...

Zamir L, Devor K, Sauriol F
J Biol Chem . 1991 Aug; 266(23):14992-5000. PMID: 1869536
Upon feeding an excess of the substrate isotrichodermin, five tricyclic metabolites accumulated in Fusarium culmorum cultures. These compounds were also identified as transient intermediates of trichothecene biosynthesis by kinetic pulse...

Can J Microbiol . 1991 Apr; 37(4):276-80. PMID: 1913340
The shikimate metabolites are key precursors to a large number of natural products, including aromatic amino acids. Chorismic acid is an important branch point in the biosynthetic pathway to aromatic...

J Biol Chem . 1990 Apr; 265(12):6713-25. PMID: 2182627
Two different approaches enabled us to unambiguously establish the intermediacy of isotrichodermin and 12,13-epoxytrichothec-9-ene in the biosynthesis of the trichothecenes 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol and sambucinol, respectively. The kinetic pulse-labeling method enabled us...

J Biol Chem . 1988 Nov; 263(33):17284-90. PMID: 2972718
A novel natural product structurally related to prephenate and arogenate was isolated from a mutant of Neurospora crassa. This D-beta-(1-carboxy-4-hydroxy-2,5-cyclohexadiene-1-yl)-lactic acid is herein given the trivial name of D-prephenyllactate. The...

J Biol Chem . 1987 Nov; 262(32):15354-8. PMID: 3680200
A novel dead-end metabolite of Fusarium culmorum was isolated and characterized (Zamir, L. O., and Devor, K. A. (1987) J. Biol. Chem. 15348-15353). This 3 alpha, 13-dihydroxy-apotrichothec-9-ene is herein given...

Zamir L, Devor K
J Biol Chem . 1987 Nov; 262(32):15348-53. PMID: 3680199
A kinetic pulse-labeling method was utilized in Fusarium culmorum to detect plausible biosynthetic intermediates and differentiate them from dead-end metabolites. The ultimate test to demonstrate a precursor relies on feeding...

Eur J Biochem . 1976 Apr; 63(2):459-67. PMID: 770174
A procedure is described to hybridize cytoplasmic membranes of Escherichia coli. The method involves high-speed contrifugation of two different vesicle preparations at 37 degrees C in the presence of cations...
