GLC--mass spectral analysis of fungal metabolites. 1978

D B Repke, and D T Leslie, and N G Kish

Four metabolites, hispidin, bisnoryangonin, muscimole, and ibotenic acid, from potentially psychoactive mushrooms were analyzed by GLC--mass spectrometry as their trimethylsilyl derivatives. This method was applied to the first two compounds in Gymnopilus punctifolius (Peck) Singer and to the last two compounds in Amania pantherina (Fr.) Secr.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D007051	Ibotenic Acid	A neurotoxic isoxazole (similar to KAINIC ACID and MUSCIMOL) found in AMANITA mushrooms. It causes motor depression, ataxia, and changes in mood, perceptions and feelings, and is a potent excitatory amino acid agonist.	Acid, Ibotenic
D007555	Isoxazoles	Azoles with an OXYGEN and a NITROGEN next to each other at the 1,2 positions, in contrast to OXAZOLES that have nitrogens at the 1,3 positions.	Isoxazole
D011753	Pyrones	Keto-pyrans.
D002849	Chromatography, Gas	Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.

D000363	Agaricales	An extensive order of basidiomycetous fungi whose fruiting bodies are commonly called mushrooms.	Agaricaceae,Mushrooms,Agaricale,Mushroom
D000545	Amanita	A genus of fungi of the family Agaricaceae, order Agaricales; most species are poisonous.	Amanitas
