Front Cover: Biosynthesis of Depsides, Depsidones, and Diphenyl Ethers from Fungi and Lichens (Asian J. Org. Chem. 2/2025)
This review article summarizes the recent advances in the biosynthetic studies on depsides, depsidones, and diphenyl ethers from fungi and lichens. The mechanisms behind their backbone synthesis and structural diversification are discussed. This cover picture illustrates that non-reducing polyketide synthases (NR-PKSs) are the central enzymes for their biosynthesis. More details can be found inarticle number e202400451 by Qiaolin Ji and Yudai Matsuda.
期刊介绍:
Organic chemistry is the fundamental science that stands at the heart of chemistry, biology, and materials science. Research in these areas is vigorous and truly international, with three major regions making almost equal contributions: America, Europe and Asia. Asia now has its own top international organic chemistry journal—the Asian Journal of Organic Chemistry (AsianJOC)
The AsianJOC is designed to be a top-ranked international research journal and publishes primary research as well as critical secondary information from authors across the world. The journal covers organic chemistry in its entirety. Authors and readers come from academia, the chemical industry, and government laboratories.
