The <i>ACE1</i> and <i>RAP1</i> genes from the avirulence signalling gene cluster of the rice blast fungus <i>Magnaporthe oryzae</i> were expressed in <i>Aspergillus oryzae</i> and <i>M. oryzae</i> itself. Expression of <i>ACE1</i> alone produced a polyenyl pyrone (magnaporthepyrone), which is regioselectively epoxidised and hydrolysed to give different diols, <b>6</b> and <b>7</b>, in the two host organisms. Analysis of the three introns present in <i>ACE1</i> determined that <i>A. oryzae</i> d ...[more]
