Roquefortine C is a mycotoxin that belongs to a class of naturally occurring 2,5-diketopiperazines[1] produced by various fungi, particularly species from the genus Penicillium.[2] It was first isolated from a strain of Penicillium roqueforti, a species commercially used as a source of proteolytic and lipolytic enzymes during maturation of the blue-veined cheeses, Roquefort, Danish Blue, Stilton and Gorgonzola.

Roquefortine C is a cyclodipeptide mycotoxin derived from the diketopiperazine cyclo(Trp-dehydro-His) and is a relatively common fungal metabolite produced by a number of Penicillium species. It is also considered one of the most important fungal contaminants of carbonated beverages, beer, wine, meats, cheese and bread.[3] At high doses roquefortine C is classified as a toxic compound.[4] Although it is a potent neurotoxin[5][6] at high doses, at low concentrations of 0.05 to 1.47 mg/kg that occur in domestic cheeses, it was found to be "safe for the consumer".[7] The mechanisms underlying its toxicity and metabolism have been investigated by studying its interaction with mammalian cytochrome P450 enzymes.[4] In addition to these toxic properties, roquefortine C reportedly possesses bacteriostatic activity against gram-positive bacteria,[8] but only in those organisms containing haemoproteins.[4][9]

Roquefortine C contains the unusual E-dehydrohistidine moiety, a system that typically undergoes facile isomerization under acidic, basic, or photochemical conditions to isoroquefortine C, the 3,12 double-bond Z-isomer of roquefortine C.[10]

However isoroquefortine C is not a natural product and in contrast to roquefortine C does not bind iron. Both have been synthesised.[10]
