Deuterium as a tracer in polyketide biosynthesis: a new method for the detection of chain starter units

Abstract

An intact incorporation of a 13CD3 group from [2-13C,2-2H3] acetate into the C(1) methyl group of terrein is established from the deuterium-decoupled 13C n.m.r. spectrum of the metabolite; a varying degree of exchange of label along the polyketide chain is detected.
