Chromatin-mediated upregulation of Monascus pigments in Talaromyces purpurogenus OUCMDZ-019 via disruption of Ash2

Mycology
Monascus pigments (MPs) are important azaphilone-type polyketide pigments, yet yield control, stability, and safety pose challenges. Using an epigenetic derepression strategy, we constructed an Ash2 deletion mutant in the acidophilic fungus Talaromyces ...

Antimicrobial Azaphilones from the Xylariaceous Inedible Mushrooms

International Journal of Medicinal Mushrooms, 2005
In the course of our investigation of biologically active substances from inedible mushrooms, we studied the chemical constituents of six species belonging to the Xylariaceae family (Sardariomycetideae) and isolated various types of azaphilone derivatives, which showed moderate to strong antimicrobial activity, such as entonaemins A–C (1–3), together ...

Structure-specific Inhibition of Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein by Azaphilones.

The Journal of Antibiotics, 1999
The effect of thirteen different fungal azaphilones, which have a common 6-iso-chromane-like ring, was tested on cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) activity in vitro. Chaetoviridin B showed the most potent inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of < 6.2 microM, followed by sclerotiorin with an IC50 value of 19.4 microM. Rotiorin, chaetoviridin A
