Eremophilanes exhibit diverse biological activities and chemical structures. This study reports the bioinformatics-guided reconstitution of the biosynthetic machinery of fungal eremophilanes, eremofortin C and sporogen-AO1, to elucidate their biosynthetic pathways. Their biosyntheses include P450-catalyzed multistep oxidation and enzyme-catalyzed isomerization by the DUF3237 family protein. Successful characterization of six P450s enabled us to discuss the functions of eremophilane P450s in putative eremophilane biosynthetic gene clusters, providing opportunities to understand the oxidative modification pathways of fungal eremophilanes.
