Amatoxins are polypeptides that cause 90% of fatalities from accidental ingestion of poisonous mushrooms. Unfortunately, there are no specific antidotes against amatoxins poisoning, hence preparation of high-affinity antibodies, understanding the ...

The biosynthetic pathway for the peptide natural product omphalotin A of the agaricomycete Omphalotus olearius can be exploited for the production of non‐natural, multiply backbone N‐methylated peptide macrocycles in the yeast Pichia pastoris (Komagataella phaffii).

Quantification of alpha-amanitin in biological samples by HPLC using simultaneous UV- diode array and electrochemical detection [PDF]
α-Amanitin is a natural bicyclic octapeptide, from the family of amatoxins, present in the deadly mushroom species Amanita phalloides. The toxicological and clinical interests raised by this toxin, require highly sensitive, accurate and reproducible ...

Examining the associations between a generalist feeder and a highly toxic host
We used a variety of behavioral assays to assess the association between a generalist feeder and a highly toxic host fungus. Our results suggest that access to a resource with lower competition may help to maintain this association. Abstract Understanding the often antagonistic plant–herbivore interactions and how host defenses can influence herbivore ...

In a 3 year period (1975-77) 50 patients have been admitted to the I.C.U. of Polyclinic Hospital of Milan for poisoning from mushrooms of Amanita genus. In 47 cases the diagnosis was confirmed "a posteriori" by serum or urinary detection of amatoxins and/
