Investigation of Culture Conditions for Biosynthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Aspergillus fumigatus
In this study, silver nanoparticles were synthesized using the fungus, Aspergillus fumigatus. The effects of three independent variables including glucose content of culture media, initial pH and initial spore concentration on biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles were investigated. These variables affect cell morphology, cell mass, size and morphology of silver nanoparticles and degree of silv...
متن کاملChitin biosynthesis in protoplasts and subcellular fractions of Aspergillus fumigatus.
The biosynthesis of chitin has been obtained in broken mycelia and protoplasts of the fungus Aspergillus fumigatus. The specific activity of chitin synthase (EC 2.4.1.16) in a membrane preparation from protoplasts derived from the hyphal tips of A. fumigatus was 26.8-fold greater than that of the chitin synthase in broken mycelia, indicating that the active chitin synthase is located primarily ...
متن کاملPlant-like biosynthesis of isoquinoline alkaloids in Aspergillus fumigatus
Natural product discovery efforts have focused primarily on microbial biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) containing large multimodular polyketide synthases and nonribosomal peptide synthetases; however, sequencing of fungal genomes has revealed a vast number of BGCs containing smaller NRPS-like genes of unknown biosynthetic function. Using comparative metabolomics, we show that a BGC in the huma...
متن کاملThe ergosterol biosynthesis pathway, transporter genes, and azole resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus.
The continuous use of triazoles can result in the development of drug resistance. Azole-resistant clinical isolates, spontaneous and induced mutants of Aspergillus fumigatus have been documented. The azoles block the ergosterol biosynthesis pathway by inhibiting the enzyme 14-alpha-demethylase, product of the CYP51. Fungal azole resistance involves both amino acid changes in the target site tha...
متن کاملExpression of aflR, veA and laeA as regulators of aflatoxins and cyclopiazonic acid biosynthesis pathway in Aspergillus flavus
In this study, the production of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) and cyclopiazonic acid (CPA) was investigated in toxigenic and non-toxigenic Aspergillus flavus with respect to expression of aflR, veA and laeA genes that are involved to toxins production. A. flavus strains were cultured in YES broth at 28 °C for 4 days and the presence of (AFB1) and (CPA) was confirmed and measured by TLC and HPLC. The exp...
