Diversity of Fungal DNA Methyltransferases and Their Association With DNA Methylation Patterns [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) are a group of proteins that catalyze DNA methylation by transferring a methyl group to DNA. The genetic variation in DNMTs results in differential DNA methylation patterns associated with various biological processes.

Optimization of DNA extraction from human urinary samples for mycobiome community profiling. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 IntroductionRecent data suggest the urinary tract hosts a microbial community of varying composition, even in the absence of infection. Culture-independent methodologies, such as next-generation sequencing of conserved ribosomal DNA sequences, provide an

Comparison of methods for isolating fungal DNA
Practical Laboratory Medicine, 2021 Objectives: The main aim of this work was to compare the methods of DNA isolation in the moulds of genus Mucorales with special regard to the amount and purity of the DNA acquired. The acquired DNA was then amplified by specific real-time PCR.

Uncovering unseen fungal diversity from plant DNA banks [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Throughout the world DNA banks are used as storage repositories for genetic diversity of organisms ranging from plants to insects to mammals. Designed to preserve the genetic information for organisms of interest, these banks also indirectly preserve ...

Comparison of methods for isolating fungal DNA [PDF]
Czech Journal of Food Sciences, 2011 In this study methods of fungal DNA isolation were optimised and compared. The aim of the isolation processes was to obtain DNA of sufficient quality and quantity necessary for its amplification, as most detection techniques require DNA amplification ...

Influence of DNA extraction kits on freshwater fungal DNA metabarcoding [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 AbstractBackgroundEnvironmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is a common technique for efficient biodiversity monitoring, especially of microbes. Recently, the usefulness of aquatic eDNA in monitoring the diversity of both terrestrial and aquatic fungi has been suggested.
