Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of microbial technology, and particularly relates to the application of a purple mold DQWM-G4 and its inoculum in the preparation of 1-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazole. Background Technology

[0002] Nucleoside compounds generally refer to substances composed of a base and a sugar. After phosphorylation, nucleosides participate in various cellular processes such as DNA and RNA synthesis, cell signaling, enzyme regulation, and metabolism. They can inhibit cell division and viral transmission, thus often exhibiting antitumor and antiviral effects. Triazoles are an important class of five-membered heterocyclic compounds containing three nitrogen atoms, existing in two isomers: 1,2,3-triazole and 1,2,4-triazole. 1,2,4-triazole derivatives generally possess pharmacological activities such as anticancer, antiviral, antihypertensive, antidiabetic, and antituberculosis effects, and are widely used in biomedicine and materials science. 1,2,4-triazole nucleosides typically have antiviral activity. Ribavirin (1-β-D-ribofurano-1,2,4-triazole-3-hydroxyamide) was the first reported small molecule drug of the 1,2,4-triazole nucleoside class, showing good inhibitory effects against more than ten viruses, including hepatitis C virus and respiratory syncytial virus. 1-(β-D-ribofuranoside)-1H-1,2,4-triazole is a 1,2,4-triazole nucleoside compound that is mainly found in peppermint, seaweed, and sponge Callyspongia sp.

[0003] Microbial metabolism produces a wealth of metabolites, including primary and secondary metabolites. Secondary metabolites often have complex structures, including a large number of bioactive compounds. The technology of obtaining bioactive substances through microbial fermentation plays a vital role in food, medicine, fine chemicals, bioenergy, biomaterials, and biomass resource utilization, making a remarkable contribution to the national economy.

[0004] *Purpureocillium* sp. was established as a new genus in 2011, separating from *Paecilomyces*. Its colonies are pale purple. For example, *Purpureocillium lilacinum*, also known as *Paecilomyces lilacinus*, is an important nematode-eating fungus. Its metabolites have good control effects on most parasitic nematodes and can also promote plant growth. Currently, more than ten pesticide products formulated with *Purpureocillium lilacinum* have been approved and registered in my country.
