The plant pathogenic fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioides f. sp. aeschynomene utilizes external tryptophan to produce indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) through the intermediate indole-3-acetamide (IAM). We studied the effects of tryptophan, IAA, and IAM on IAA biosynthesis in fungal axenic cultures and on

The plant hormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) can be synthesized from tryptophan via the intermediate indole-3-acetamide (IAM). The two genes, IaaM (encoding tryptophan monooxygenase) and IaaH (encoding indole-3-acetamide hydrolase) that constitute the IAM pathway have been described in plant-associated bacteria. We

Total syntheses of leuconodine B, melodinine E, and leuconoxine were accomplished via a divergent route. The [5.5.6.6]diazafenestrane skeleton was constructed from an indole-3-acetamide derivative via DMDO oxidation to hydroxylindolenine, TMSOTf/2,6-lutidine mediated cyclic aminal formation, and diastereoseletive ring-closing metathesis of a
