Peptides derived from a phage display library inhibit adhesion and protect the host against infection by Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and Paracoccidioides lutzii
(2016-01-01)
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and Paracoccidioides lutzii are dimorphic fungi and are the etiological agents of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). Adhesion is one of the most important steps in infections with Paracoccidioides ...
Flavonoids from Plinia cauliflora (Mart.) Kausel (Myrtaceae) with antifungal activity
(2018-04-05)
Plinia cauliflora is a plant species with edible fruits but its chemical composition is not totally known yet although former studies showed its potential as antifungal agent. This work aimed the chemical analysis of the ...
Qualidade sanitária de sementes de brachiaria brizantha cv. Marandú e xaraés colhidas em diferentes estados do Brasil
(2017-11-01)
The incidence of fungi in seeds depends on the sanitary and climatic conditions in which the seeds were produced. So, the objective of this study was to identify the fungi present in commercial lots of Brachiaria brizantha ...
PRP8 intein in dermatophytes: Evolution and species identification
(Oxford Univ Press, 2018-08-01)
Dermatophytes are keratinophilic fungi belonging to the family Arthrodermataceae. Despite having a monophyletic origin, its systematics has always been complex and controversial. Sequencing of nuclear ribosomal ITS and ...
The potential of compounds isolated from Xylaria spp. as antifungal agents against anthracnose
(Springer, 2018-10-01)
Anthracnose is a crop disease usually caused by fungi in the genus Colletotrichum or Gloeosporium. These are considered one of the main pathogens, causing significant economic losses, such as in peppers and guarana. The ...
Oxidative functionalization of a halimane diterpenoid achieved by fungal transformation
(2019-05-01)
Regio and stereoselective activation of sp 3 C–H bonds remain one of the major advantages of biocatalysis over traditional chemocatalytic methods. Herein, we describe the oxy-functionalization of halimane diterpenoid 1 by ...
Evaluation of antileishmanial activity of harzialactone a isolated from the marine-derived fungus Paecilomyces sp
(2019-01-01)
Fractionation of extracts from the culture broth of the marine-derived fungus, Paecilomyces sp. 7A22, resulted in the isolation of the harzialactone A (HA), a known compound previously isolated from fungi of marine ...
Production of milk peptides with antimicrobial and antioxidant properties through fungal proteases
(2019-04-25)
Bioactive peptides can provide health benefits due to different mechanisms. The aims of the present study are to produce bioactive peptides from bovine and goat milk subjected to the proteolytic activity of Aspergillus ...
Ceruloplasmin, transferrin and apolipoprotein A-II play important role in treatment’s followup of paracoccidioidomycosis patients
(2018-10-01)
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic disease caused by thermodymorphic fungi of the Paracoccidioides brasiliensis complex, (Paracoccidioides spp.). Patients with PCM reveal specific cellular immune impairment. Despite ...
Water-Soluble Glutamic Acid Derivatives Produced in Culture by Penicillium solitum IS1-A from King George Island, Maritime Antarctica
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2020-01-01)
A new method of screening was developed to generate 770 organic and water-soluble fractions from extracts of nine species of marine sponges, from the growth media of 18 species of marine-derived fungi, and from the growth ...
