چکیده
An iron-complexing antibiotic with a narrow spectrum of biological activity was produced by several strains of Aspergillus nidulans when grown in a low-iron, chemically defined medium. Its chemical and biological properties closely resembled those of desferritriacetylfusigen, a metabolite of several other Aspergilli and Penicillia.

Catalase activity is necessary for heat-shock recovery in Aspergillus nidulans germlings.
To understand the molecular mechanisms induced by stress that contribute to the development of tolerance in eukaryotic cells, the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans has been chosen as a model system. Here, the response of A. nidulans germlings to heat shock is reported. The heat treatment dramatically increased the concentration of trehalose and induced the accumulation of mannitol and mRN...
متن کاملChanges in Aspergillus nidulans gene expression induced by bafilomycin, a Streptomyces-produced antibiotic.
In natural environments bacteria and filamentous fungi often compete for the same resources. Consequently, production of antibiotic secondary metabolites and defence mechanisms against these compounds have evolved in these organisms. An experimental model has been developed to study the response in fungi exposed to one such antibiotic. The filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans was treated wit...

متن کاملG1549, a new cyclic hydroxamic acid antibiotic, isolated from culture broth of Pseudomonas alcaligenes.
Antibiotic G1549, isolated from culture broth of Pseudomonas alcaligenes, is a new cyclic hydroxamic acid with a 1-hydroxy-2(1H)-pyridinone structure that complexes with metals. The structure of G1549 is suggested to be 1-hydroxy-5-methoxy-6-methyl-2(1H)-pyridinone. In vitro, G1549 and its copper and ferric complexes show moderate activity against Gram-positive bacteria, fungi and Trichomonas v...
