The effects of modified expression of several sesquiterpene biosynthesis genes in the genome of A. nidulans were investigated by HRMS, NMR and Circular Dichroism Spectroscopy. In expression-enforced strains, LO6191 for AN3277 gene and LO8910 and LO8925 for AN3280 gene of A. nidulans, three peaks were detected in the extracted ion chromatogram (EIC) at m/z 204, which corresponds to the molecular ions of sesquiterpenes including (+)-aristolochene.
