Fusarium Cyclodepsipeptide Mycotoxins: Chemistry, Biosynthesis, and Occurrence
Toxins, 2020 Most of the fungi from the Fusarium genus are pathogenic to cereals, vegetables, and fruits and the products of their secondary metabolism mycotoxins may accumulate in foods and feeds. Non-ribosomal cyclodepsipeptides are one of the main mycotoxin groups

Challenges in risk assessment of multiple mycotoxins in food [PDF]
, 2016 Review articleMost fungi are able to produce several mycotoxins simultaneously and, consequently, to contaminate a wide variety of foodstuffs. Therefore, the risk of human co-exposure to multiple mycotoxins is real, raising a growing concern about their ...

Synthesis of beauvericin by a multifunctional enzyme.
The Journal of Antibiotics, 1988 Beauvericin synthetase, a multifunctional enzyme catalyzing depsipeptide formation in Beauveria bassiana was purified to near homogeneity. The enzyme consists of a single polypeptide chain with a molecular mass of about 250 kdaltons. The mechanism of beauvericin formation is very similar to that of the cyclohexadepsipeptide enniatin.
