Aflatoxins and Other Mycotoxins: What's in Their Future? [PDF]

, 2005
As drought struck corn fields through much of southeastern Iowa in 2005, producers were reminded that mycotoxin problems, especially aflatoxins, often follow drought stress. Aflatoxins (produced by the fungi Aspergillus flavus and A.

Characterization of a Fungal Modular Polyketide Synthase System Reveals an Unusual Strategy for Polyketide Chain Initiation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Fungal modular polyketide synthases (PKSs) remain largely unexplored. Functional characterization of the LasC/LasD assembly line established its role in strasseriolide C biosynthesis and suggested an unexpected strategy for chain initiation, in which a malonyl unit is transferred from the module 2 acyl carrier protein (ACP) domains to the loading ACP ...
