Mechanism Behind the Programmed Biosynthesis of Heterotrimeric Fungal Depside Thielavin A
The polyketide synthase ThiA that forms the heterotrimeric fungal depside thielavin A (1) has been identified and characterized. The thioesterase (TE) domain of ThiA was found to perform two consecutive esterification reactions as well as subsequent hydrolysis, and a plausible reaction mechanism for the TE‐catalyzed reactions has been proposed ...

Allelopathic effect of the Cladonia verticillaris lichen extracts and fumarprotocetraric acid on the early growth of germinated seedlings in Allium cepa L. [PDF]
The allelopathic activity of the different type of Cladonia verticillaris lichen extracts and fumarprotocetraric acid on the early growth of A. cepa (IPA 6) germinated seedlings depends on their chemical composition and concentration, respectively.

Herbicidal and Plant-growth Stimulating Effects of Phenolic Compounds Isolated from Lichens
The depsides atranorin (7) and diffractaic acid (1), the depsidones hypostictic (2) protocetraric (3), salazinic (4) acids, the xanthone secalonic acid (5), and usnic acid (6) were evaluated for their phytotoxic potentials against the target species ...

A Biosynthetic and Taxonomic Atlas of the Global Lichen Holobiont
This analysis of 794 publicly available lichen shotgun metagenomic datasets, covering 467 unique lichen species from 34 countries, revealed that lichens are complex holobionts. They harbour a variety of fungal, algal, and bacterial players with remarkable biosynthetic capabilities.

The potential therapeutic effects of evernic acid (EA) were investigated using functional in vitro assays and the evaluation of gene and protein expression levels on ovarian cancer cell lines. EA demonstrated antiproliferative effects on ovarian cancer cells, primarily through the activation of apoptosis at both cellular and molecular levels.

Circumscription of the genus Lepra, a recently resurrected genus to accommodate the "Variolaria"-group of Pertusaria sensu lato (Pertusariales, Ascomycota). [PDF]
Pertusarialean lichens include more than 300 species belonging to several independent phylogenetic lineages. Only some of these phylogenetic clades have been comprehensively sampled for molecular data, and formally described as genera.
