Oxidative rearrangements are key reactions during the biosyntheses of many secondary metabolites in fungi. This review highlights the most important examples of these reactions and aims to draw together key mechanistic themes to allow a better understanding and future exploitation of this key class of fungal catalysts.

Isolation and sequencing of a PKS gene isolated from xenovulene-producing cultures of Acremonium strictum indicated the presence of NT-, KS-, AT-, PT-, C-MeT- and R-domains; heterologous expression in Aspergillus oryzae resulted in the production of 3-methylorcinaldehyde, demonstrating the role of the terminal reductase domain in product release.
