Paxilline is a toxic, tremorgenic diterpene indole polycyclic alkaloid molecule produced by Penicillium paxilli which was first characterized in 1975.[1][2] Paxilline is one of a class of tremorigenic mycotoxins, is a potassium channel blocker, and is potentially genotoxic.[3]

Paxilline was found to significantly extend the lifespan, healthspan, and mobility of aged C. elegans worms, but had no such effect on young worms.[4] Paxilline was not found to induce seizures when injected intracerebroventricularly in mice[5] but paradoxically had anticonvulsant activity against picrotoxin and pentylenetetrazol seizures in mice.[6] It has also been used in mice to induce autism-like behaviors through inhibition of the BK channel.[7]

Biosynthesis

[edit]

Paxiline biosynthesis starts with the synthesis of geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate via the terpenoid pathway and indole-3-glycerol phosphate, which is an intermediate in the tryptophan biosynthesis pathway.[8] By expressing six genes known to be necessary for Paxilline synthesis in Aspergillus oryzae, the further steps in the biosynthesis were identified; two epoxidations and two cyclizations yield paspaline, then two oxidation reactions and a demethylation complete the synthesis.[9] This biosynthesis is notable for its unusual stereospecific polycyclization mechanism that has not been replicated in a chemical synthesis, though other mechanisms have been devised for total synthesis of Paxilline.[10] Paxilline has also been found to be mono- or di-prenylated with DMAPP by an atypical prenyltransferase enzyme.[11]
