(−)-microperfuranone
CHEBI:64974 EXACT SEEDED
A butenolide that is furan-2(5H)-one which is substituted by a phenyl group at position 3, a benzyl group at position 4, and a hydroxy group at position 5 (the (−)-enantiomer). A secondary metabolite obtained from Aspergillus nidulans.

Filing pathway
Shikimates and phenylpropanoids — computed by NPClassifier npclassifier.gnps2.org@2026-09-07, which is why it is pinned rather than recomputed. The gene cluster's asserted class is nrps, from MIBiG.
Producer organisms 1
A claim that this taxon makes the compound. The basis says what the evidence addressed — a knockout and a database assertion are not the same claim.
| Taxon | Basis | Cluster | Evidence |

| Aspergillus nidulans FGSC A4 NCBITaxon:227321 |
SOURCE_ASSERTION | mibig:BGC0001668 | PMID:22627757 |
Occurrences 3
Somebody found the compound in this organism and cited it. That is not a claim that the organism makes it, and nothing here promotes one to the other.

A locus claim and a taxon claim are different questions. Heterologous expression settles the first and leaves the second where the isolation report left it.
