This compound was also overproduced by inactivating the stc2 gene, which encodes an unknown sesquiterpene cyclase. Its structure and absolute configuration were determined by extensive spectroscopic NMR and HRESIMS studies, and electronic circular dichroism calculations. Its biosynthesis was studied by feeding 2H and 13C isotopically labeled precursors to B. cinerea Δstc2 mutant. A detailed analysis of the labeling and coupling patterns into botrycinereic acid (22a) revealed that this compound derives from L-phenylalanine and L-leucine.
