Reconstruction of a genome-scale metabolic model and in-silico flux analysis of Aspergillus tubingensis: a non-mycotoxinogenic citric acid-producing fungus [PDF]

Biotechnology for Biofuels and Bioproducts
Background Aspergillus tubingensis is a citric acid-producing fungus that can utilize sugars in hydrolysate of lignocellulosic biomass such as sugarcane bagasse and, unlike A. niger, does not produce mycotoxins. To date, no attempt has been made to model

Prevalence of Aspergillus Section Nigri Complex Species Isolated from Clinical Specimens in Kuwait and Their Susceptibility to Antifungal Drugs [PDF]

Journal of Fungi
Aspergillus spp. are common environmental molds worldwide and mostly cause infections in immunocompromised individuals. We have previously shown that black aspergilli (Aspergillus section Nigri) isolates are the most common aspergilli in indoor and ...

Aspergillus tubingensis Endocarditis: A Case Report and Review of the Literature. [PDF]

Mycopathologia, 2022
AbstractAspergillus endocarditis is a rare infection that may affect immunocompetent patients following heart valve replacement or heart surgery. We report the case of a 39 year old woman with a history of intravenous drug use who developed endocarditis with direct examination of the resected valve and vegetation showing the presence of mycelia ...

Characterization of sulfhydryl oxidase from Aspergillus tubingensis. [PDF]

BMC Biochem, 2017
Despite of the presence of sulfhydryl oxidases (SOXs) in the secretomes of industrially relevant organisms and their many potential applications, only few of these enzymes have been biochemically characterized. In addition, basic functions of most of the SOX enzymes reported so far are not fully understood.

Genetic Approach to Target Putative Pks Genes in Aspergillus Section Nigri Species Producing Ochratoxin A

Biology and Life Sciences Forum, 2023
Using degenerated primers (LC1–LC2c) and two novel primer pairs, namely (KSLB–LC6) for Aspergillus niger and (AFl1F–LC2) for Aspergillus tubingensis, created for the acyl transferase (AT) and the KS sequences of fungal PKSs genes, a 700 pb PCR-derived ...

Activity of essential oils from Syzygium aromaticum and Rosmarinus officinalis against growth and ochratoxin A production by Aspergillus tubingensis and Aspergillus luchuensis from Moroccan grapes

Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2022
Essential oils have been used since ancient times in traditional medicine and agri-food science to preserve food, and to combat human diseases. Essential oils (EOs) from clove and rosemary, obtained by hydro-distillation, were analyzed by GC/MS and ...

Evaluation of catalase activity of clinical and environmental isolates of Aspergillus species

Iranian Journal of Microbiology, 2022
Background and Objectives: Catalases are a good scavenger of H2O2 which degrades hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. They are considered as a virulence factor that are present in both spores and hypha of fungi.
