CC -!- FUNCTION: Cytochrome P450 monooxygenase; part of the asc-1 gene cluster
CC that mediates the biosynthesis of both ascochlorin and ascofuranone, a
CC strong inhibitor of cyanide-insensitive alternative oxidases and a
CC promising drug candidate against African trypanosomiasis
CC (PubMed:30952781). The first step in the pathway is performed by the
CC non-reducing polyketide synthase ascC that produces orsellinic acid by
CC condensing acetyl-CoA with 3 malonyl-CoA units (PubMed:30952781).
CC Orsellinic acid is then prenylated by the prenyltransferase ascA to
CC yield ilicicolinic acid B (PubMed:30952781). Ilicicolinic acid B is
CC further reduced to ilicicolin B by the reductase ascB
CC (PubMed:30952781). The halogenase ascD then chlorinates ilicicolin B to
CC produce ilicicolin A which is converted to ilicicolin A epoxide by the
CC cytochrome P450 monooxygenase ascE that catalyzes stereoselective
CC epoxidation of the terminal double bond of the prenyl group
CC (PubMed:30952781). Ilicicolin A epoxide is the last common precursor
CC for the biosynthesis of ascofuranone and ascochlorin (PubMed:30952781).
CC The terpene cyclase ascF produces a monocyclic terpene, and the
CC cyclization reaction is proposed to be initiated by protonation of the
CC terminal epoxide of ilicicolin A epoxide to generate a monocyclic
CC tertiarycation, which is followed by a series of hydride and methyl
CC shifts with abstraction of proton, leading to the formation of the
CC (14S,15R,19R)-trimethylcyclohexanone ring structure of ilicicolin C,
CC which is finally reduced to ascochlorin by the dehydrogenase ascG
CC (PubMed:30952781). On the other hand, ilicicolin A epoxide is
CC hydroxylated by the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase ascH, and the
CC resultant product is cyclized by the terpene cyclase ascI to
CC ascofuranol via protonation-initiated epoxide ring opening, which
CC facilitates the 6-endo-tet cyclization to form the tetrahy-drofuran
CC ring (PubMed:30952781). Finally, ascofuranol is oxidized into
CC ascofuranone by ascJ (PubMed:30952781). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:30952781}.

CC -!- PATHWAY: Secondary metabolite biosynthesis; terpenoid biosynthesis.

CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane {ECO:0000255}; Single-pass membrane
CC protein {ECO:0000255}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Expression is induced on AF medium.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:30952781}.
CC -!- BIOTECHNOLOGY: Ascofuranone is a specific inhibitor of trypanosome
CC alternative oxidase (TAO), and quickly kills African trypanosomes in
CC vitro and cures infected mice. As an essential factor for trypanosome
CC survival, TAO is a promising drug target due to the absence of
CC alternative oxidases in the mammalian host.

CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family. {ECO:0000305}.
