Journal Article
Melleins–intriguing natural compounds
2020
Overview
Melleins are 3,4-dihydroisocoumarins mainly produced by fungi, but also by plants, insects and bacteria. These specialized metabolites play important roles in the life cycles of the producers and they are involved in many biochemical and ecological processes. This review outlines the isolation and chemical and biological characterizations of natural-occurring melleins from the first report of (R)-mellein in 1933 to the most recent advances in their characterization in 2019. In addition, the pathways that could be involved in mellein biosynthesis are discussed, along with the enzymes and genes involved.
