Relation between CarS expression and activation of carotenogenesis by stress in Fusarium fujikuroi
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2022)
Fusarium fujikuroi, a model organism for secondary metabolism in fungi, produces carotenoids, terpenoid pigments with antioxidant activity. Previous results indicate that carotenoid synthesis in F. fujikuroi is stimulated ...
Tesis Doctoral
Modificación de la biosíntesis de carotenoides de Gibberella Fujikuroi
(1987)
La tesis describe los efectos mutagénicos de la n-metil-n'-nitro-n-nitrosogua-nidina y la radiación ultravioleta sobre Gibberella fujikuroi. Se describen las caracteristicas de distintos tipos de mutantes alterados en la ...

Fungal Secondary Metabolism
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2021)
Definition: Fungal secondary metabolites (SMs) comprise a vast collection of compounds expendable for these organisms under laboratory conditions. They exhibit enormous chemical diversity, and usu- ally belong to four ...

HmbC, a Protein of the HMG Family, Participates in the Regulation of Carotenoid Biosynthesis in Fusarium fujikuroi
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)
In the fungus Fusarium fujikuroi, carotenoid production is up-regulated by light and down-regulated by the CarS RING finger protein, which modulates the mRNA levels of carotenoid pathway genes (car genes). To identify new ...

The flavoproteins CryD and VvdA cooperate with the white collar protein WcoA in the Control of photocarotenogenesis in Fusarium fujikuroi
(Public Library of Science, 2015)
Light stimulates carotenoid biosynthesis in the ascomycete fungus Fusarium fujikuroi through transcriptional activation of the structural genes of the pathway carRA, carB, and cart, but the molecular basis of this photoresponse ...

Controlled Transcription of Regulator Gene carS by Tet-on or by a Strong Promoter Confirms Its Role as a Repressor of Carotenoid Biosynthesis in Fusarium fujikuroi
(MDPI, 2020-12)
Carotenoid biosynthesis is a frequent trait in fungi. In the ascomycete Fusarium fujikuroi, the synthesis of the carboxylic xanthophyll neurosporaxanthin (NX) is stimulated by light. However, the mutants of the carS gene, ...

Identification and regulation of fusA, The polyketide synthase gene responsible for fusarin production in Fusarium fujikuroi
(American Society for Microbiology, 2012)
Fusarins are a class of mycotoxins of the polyketide family produced by different Fusarium species, including the gibberellin- producing fungus Fusarium fujikuroi. Based on sequence comparisons between polyketide synthase ...

The CarO rhodopsin of the fungus Fusarium fujikuroi is a light-driven proton pump that retards spore germination
(Nature Publishing Group, 2015)
Rhodopsins are membrane-embedded photoreceptors found in all major taxonomic kingdoms using retinal as their chromophore. They play well-known functions in different biological systems, but their roles in fungi remain ...

Analysis of al-2 mutations in neurospora
(Public Library of Science, 2011)
The orange pigmentation of the fungus Neurospora crassa is due to the accumulation of the xanthophyll neurosporaxanthin and precursor carotenoids. Two key reactions in the synthesis of these pigments, the formation of ...

A global perspective on carotenoids: metabolism, biotechnology, and benefits for nutrition and health.
(Elsevier, 2018-04-04)
Carotenoids are lipophilic isoprenoid compounds synthesized by all photosynthetic organisms and some non-photosynthetic bacteria and fungi. With some notable exceptions, animals (including humans) do not produce carotenoids ...
