Abstract
With the aim of revealing the specific reactions of biotransformation under lignolytic conditions, the metabolic transformation bySporotrichum pulverulentum of a number of acetophenone compounds not previously investigated that model fragments of the lignin molecule has been studied. It has been established that the metabolism of 4-hydroxyacetophenone 3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside takes place as a sequence of processes involving deglucosylation, the methylation of free phenolic hydroxy groups with the formation of methylated intermediates, and the further hydroxylation of the m-methylated metabolite.
