چکیده
Significance Metal homeostasis is an integral part of metabolism for any organism. A vast array natural products are already known to mediate iron in fungi and bacteria; however, unlike their bacterial counterparts, date, there no fungal small molecules that function maintain copper homeostasis. Discovery copper-binding xanthocillins produced by Aspergillus fumigatus gives insight into mechanisms other than the extensively studied transporters or metalloproteins how can regulate copper. This has important ecological implications, as securing scarce nutrients central fitness survival. Conservation xanthocillin biosynthetic machinery across filamentous taxa offers a new paradigm eukaryotic metal

متن کاملAntimicrobial activity of bioactive compound(s) produced by Bacillus species
Antibiotics are metabolic by-products of complex biosynthetic pathways in microorganisms. They are usually produced by aerobic spore-forming bacteria in the genera Bacillus and Streptomyces and in the Fungi Penicillium and Cephalosporium. Antimicrobials such as bacteriocins are inhibitory peptides or proteins, which have bactericidal effects on micro-organisms closely related to the producer. T...
