Biosynthesis of bitter acids in hops. A (13)C-NMR and (2)H-NMR study on the building blocks of humulone. European journal of biochemistry, 1999, Volume: 263, Issue:2 The biosynthesis of humulone, an antibacterial bitter acid from hops, was studied by isotope-incorporation experiments using (13)C-labelled glucose or (2)H(2)O. (13)C enrichments, (2)H enrichments and (13)C(13)C coupling patterns identify isovaleryl-CoA, malonyl-CoA and dimethylallyl pyrophosphate as precursors for humulone. Dimethylallyl pyrophosphate, which serves as a building block for the bitter acid, is generated via the deoxyxylulose pathway of terpenoid biosynthesis. The data confirm that a symmetrical intermediate is involved in humulone formation.
