Chemical compound From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Prymnesin-1 is a chemical with the molecular formula C
107H
154Cl
3NO
44. It is a member of the prymnesins, a class of hemolytic phycotoxins made by the alga Prymnesium parvum.[1][2] It is known to be toxic to fish, causing mass fish deaths around the world, including in Texas and England, or in 2022 in the border region of Germany and Poland (Oder).[3]

Structures

Prymnesin-1 is formed of a large polyether polycyclic core with several conjugate double and triple bonds, chlorine and nitrogen heteroatoms and O-linked sugar moieties including α-D-ribofuranose, α-L-arabinopyranose, and β-D-galactofuranose, unlike the single linked α-L-xylofuranose of prymnesin-2.[1][4] There are three forms of prymnesin known, prymnesin 1 and 2, differing in their glycosylation, and prymnesin B1[5] differing in backbone.

Biosynthesis

The backbone of A-type prymnesins like prymnesin-1 is reportedly made by giant polyketide synthase enzymes dubbed the "PKZILLAs" of which PKZILLA-1 and PKZILLA-2 are known.[6] PKZILLA-1 is composed of 45,212 amino acids with a chemical formula of C208516H334220N60758O63313S1733,[7] making it the largest known protein.[8][9] It has a molar mass of 4760921.41 g·mol−1.
