Antifungal activity of some metabolites of higher fungi (Basidiomycetes) - an overview
A series of compounds of different chemical structures showing antifungal activity were isolated from higher fungi (Basidiomycetes) fruit bodies. Among the microflora against which the examined metabolites showed effective activity, there are pathogenic ...

Burkholderia genome mining for nonribosomal peptide synthetases reveals a great potential for novel siderophores and lipopeptides synthesis [PDF]
Burkholderia is an important genus encompassing a variety of species, including pathogenic strains as well as strains that promote plant growth. We have carried out a global strategy, which combined two complementary approaches. The first one is genome guided with deep analysis of genome sequences and the second one is assay guided with experiments to ...

Synthesis and antifungal activity of new O-alkylamidoximes
The continuous prospection for molecules that may be useful in the development of new therapeutic agents is a highly relevant issue, mainly because the launch of new drugs on the market does not accompany the emergence of new resistant microorganisms. In

Antinomic natural self-protection mechanism in long-lasting woods: a case study with three tropical species from French Guiana [PDF]
We demonstrate in this work through 3 examples that Amazonian trees may specialize longlasting woods by means of at least to different approaches. Wallaba impregnates its wood with large amounts of weakly antifungal compounds acting in synergy, while ...

Cell Membrane Vesicle Camouflaged Artificial Cells
Artificial cells camouflaged with a cell membrane vesicle coating are able to assemble into synthetic aggregates that exhibit rudimentary communication capabilities. Additionally, when these artificial cells are equipped with antioxidant capabilities, they are able to protect the intracellular homeostasis in HepG2 cells present in semi‐synthetic ...
