Cyclochlorotine
Cyclochlorotine[1] (CC), also known as islanditoxin[2] is a mycotoxin produced by the fungus Penicillium islandicum[3] that causes liver damage and has carcinogenic properties.[4] Japanese researchers confirmed that it was one of three strains of Penicillin fungi responsible for yellowed rice.[2] It is listed as an IARC Group 3 carcinogen.

Chemically, it is a dichlorinated cyclic peptide.[5] Structurally, the only thing that differentiates cyclochlorotine from the plant-derived astins of Aster tataricus, is replacement of a serine with a second 2-aminobutyrate.[6]
Cyclochlorotine are one of the toxins usually found in foods in the grains group like rice , wheat, soybeans, peanuts , beans, bread and flour etc. Such foods serve as medium for the growth of molds like Penicillium islandicum which in turn releases toxins like cyclochlorotine etc.[7] Research shows the detailed biosynthesis of Cyclochlorotine which is a multi step mechanism and makes use of a vital component in the last step known as NRPS ( CctN) which helps produce the desired Cyclochlorotine.
