Metabolite Identification
Common NameFagomine
DescriptionFagomine is an alkaloid found in the seeds of Castanospermum australe (commonly known as the Black Bean or the Moreton Bay Chestnut) (PMID: 25583438 ). Castanospermum australe is a large evergreen tree of the legume family native to the east coast of Australia in Queensland and New South Wales, and to the Pacific islands of Vanuatu, New Caledonia, and the island of New Britain (Papua New Guinea). The seeds are poisonous, but become edible when carefully prepared by roasting, cutting up into small pieces, leaching with running water for several days, and pounding into flour (Wikipedia).
