Cyclo(L-leucyl-L-prolyl) produced by Achromobacter xylosoxidans inhibits aflatoxin production by Aspergillus parasiticus.
Aflatoxins are potent carcinogenic and toxic substances that are produced primarily by Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus. We found that a bacterium remarkably inhibited production of norsolorinic acid, a precursor of aflatoxin, by A. parasiticus. This bacterium was identified as Achromobacter xylosoxidans based on its 16S ribosomal DNA sequence and was designated A. xylosoxidans NF...
متن کاملModulation of antimicrobial metabolites production by the fungus Aspergillus parasiticus
Biosynthesis of active secondary metabolites by fungi occurs as a specific response to the different growing environments. Changes in this environment alter the chemical and biological profiles leading to metabolites diversification and consequently to novel pharmacological applications. In this work, it was studied the influence of three parameters (fermentation length, medium composition and ...
متن کاملParasitical: A New Metabolite from Aspergillus parasiticus
Parasiticol, a metabolite structurally related to the aflatoxins, has been isolated and characterized. The compound is elaborated by several strains of the Aspergillus jiaDus series previously shown to be aflatoxin producers. The metabolite was separated and purified by chromatography Oll three columns (silicic acid, silica gel, and alumiua) followed by recrystallization from chlorofom,-bexane....
متن کاملA pyruvate decarboxylase gene from Aspergillus parasiticus.
A gene encoding a putative pyruvate decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.1) was isolated from a genomic library of the filamentous fungus Aspergillus parasiticus strain SU-1. The deduced amino acid sequence showed 37% homology to PDC1 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Although A. parasiticus has an obligate growth requirement for oxygen, it produced ethanol in shake flask cultures indicating a response to anox...
متن کاملThe sexual state of Aspergillus parasiticus.
The sexual state of Aspergillus parasiticus, a potent aflatoxin-producing fungus within section Flavi, is described. The production of nonostiolate ascocarps surrounded by a separate peridium within the stroma places the teleomorph in genus Petromyces. Petromyces parasiticus differs from P. alliaceus by its larger ascospores with finely tuberculate ornamentation. The anamorphic Aspergillus stat...
