  1. 1. Terpenoid Conidiation Factors in Penicillium cyclopium

    Author : Yanhong He; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; acetals; hydrolysis; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; total synthesis; analogues; synthesis; conidiogenone; conidiogenol; terpenoid; Penicillium cyclopium; conidiation inducing activity; Natural product; fungal metabolites;

    Abstract : Filamentous fungi produce asexual dispersive spores (conidia), when conditions are not suitable for apical extension growth. Conidiation (the process by which conidia produced) in genus Penicillium has attracted considerable interest because of its wide usage in different areas. READ MORE

  2. 2. Systems Biology of the Secondary Metabolism in Filamentous Fungi

    Author : Jens Christian Froslev Nielsen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; genomics; systems biology; secondary metabolites; antibiotics; Next-generation sequencing; secondary metabolism; filamentous fungi; cell factories; Penicillium;

    Abstract : Filamentous fungi constitute a rich reservoir of pharmaceutically relevant bioactive small molecules. These compounds, commonly referred to as secondary metabolites, are widely used as antibiotics for the treatment of microbial infections, but also as other pharmaceuticals such as immunosuppressors, cholesterol lowering agents and anticancer drugs.

  3. 3. Microbes Associated with Hylobius abietis : A Chemical and Behavioral Study

    Author : Muhammad Azeem; Anna Karin Borg-Karlson; Irena Valterová; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hylobius; Ewingella; Penicillium; Heterobasidion; Bacteria; Fungi; Bark; Forest waste; Metabolites; Styrene; Methyl salicylate.;

    Abstract : This thesis is based on three inter-related studies: the first part deals with the microbial consortium, the identification of microbes and their volatiles, the second part deals with the study of bio-chemical control methods of two conifer pests; the pine weevil Hylobius abietis (L.) and the root rot fungi Heterobasidion spp. READ MORE

  4. 4. Analysis of Secondary Metabolites from Aspergillus fumigatus and Penicillium nalgiovense : Antimicrobial Compounds from Filamentous Fungi Isolated from Extreme Environments

    Author : Stefan Svahn; Lars Bohlin; Björn Olsen; Ulf Göransson; Erja Chryssanthou; Douglas Kinghorn; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Aspergillus fumigatus; Penicillium nalgiovense; secondary metabolites; invasive aspergillosis; elicitation; gliotoxin; bis methyl gliotoxin; amphotericin B; Pharmacognosy; Farmakognosi;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the cultivation and extraction of filamentous fungi isolated from extreme environments in the search for new antibiotic compounds. Filamentous fungi are a rich source of medicines including antibiotics, and it is believed that many currently unknown fungal species and bioactive fungal metabolites remain to be discovered.
