Aspergillus nidulans gfdB, Encoding the Hyperosmotic Stress Protein Glycerol-3-phosphate Dehydrogenase, Disrupts Osmoadaptation in Aspergillus wentii [PDF]

Journal of Fungi
The genome of the osmophilic Aspergillus wentii, unlike that of the osmotolerant Aspergillus nidulans, contains only the gfdA, but not the gfdB, glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene. Here, we studied transcriptomic changes of A.

Biotransformation of Some Steroids by Aspergillus wentii

Zeitschrift Fur Naturforschung - Section C Journal of Biosciences, 2010
First steroid biotransformations performed by Aspergillus wentii MRC 200316 are reported. Testosterone (1) yields 6β-hydroxytestosterone (3) and 14α-hydroxytestosterone (4) while progesterone (2) yields 11α-hydroxyprogesterone (5).

Starch Hydrolysis by Conidia of Aspergillus wentii [PDF]

Applied Microbiology, 1968
Soluble starch was hydrolyzed to glucose by conidia of Aspergillus wentii NRRL 2001. Peak yields of glucose were achieved in 3 days. A glucoamylase-like enzyme was assumed to be responsible since maltose was not detected during the conversion.

Toxic Metabolite Produced by Aspergillus wentii [PDF]

Applied Microbiology, 1974
Mycelial extracts of an Aspergillus wentii strain grown on yeast-extract sucrose medium and initially isolated from country-cured ham were highly toxic when inoculated into chicken embryos or fed to mice. Moldy corn and rice were less toxic when fed to mice.
