Benzoisochromanequinones

Polycyclic aromatic polyketides with tricyclic benzoisochrome quinone skeletons. Benzoisochromanequinones are produced by Actinobacteria, e.g., STREPTOMYCES COELICOLOR, using type II minimal polyketide synthase involving condensation of 8 malonyl-CoA in actinorhodin pathway.
