emericellamide A

CHEBI:64373 EXACT SEEDED

An emericellamide derived from N-[(2R,3R,4S)-3-hydroxy-2,4-dimethyldecanoyl]glycyl-L-valyl-L-leucyl-L-alanyl-L-alanine by the formal intramolecular condensation of the alcoholic hydroxy group with the C-terminal carboxylic acid group.

Filing pathway

Unclassified — 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.

Occurrences 2

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.
