Taxol and Taxane Production by Taxomyces andreanae , an Endophytic Fungus of Pacific Yew

Stierle, Andrea, Strobel, Gary, Stierle, Donald·1993·Science

Abstract

Taxomyces andreanae , a fungal endophyte, was isolated from the phloem (inner bark) of the Pacific yew, Taxus brevifolia . The fungus is hyphomyceteous and, when grown in a semi-synthetic liquid medium, produced taxol and related compounds. Taxol was identified by mass spectrometry, chromatography, and reactivity with monoclonal antibodies specific for taxol. Both [1- 14 C]acetic acid and L-[U- 14 C]phenylalanine served as precursors of [ 14 C]taxol in fungal cultures. No taxol was detected in zero-time cultures or in the small agar plugs used to inoculate the culture flasks.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
