Discovery of a fungal Tc toxin complex and functional mycoserpin through a novel two-by-two comparative genomics approach [PDF]
IntroductionFungi have been a rich source of pharmaceuticals such as antibiotics, immunosuppressants, and cholesterol-lowering drugs; however, their therapeutic potential remains largely untapped due to difficulties in culturing and elucidating the ...

The diversity of fungal genome [PDF]
The genome size of an organism varies from species to species. The C-value paradox enigma is a very complex puzzle with regards to vast diversity in genome sizes in eukaryotes. Here we reported the detailed genomic information of 172 fungal species among different fungal genomes and found that fungal genomes are very diverse in nature.

Revisiting a ‘simple’ fungal metabolic pathway reveals redundancy, complexity and diversity
Summary Next to d‐glucose, the pentoses l‐arabinose and d‐xylose are the main monosaccharide components of plant cell wall polysaccharides and are therefore of major importance in biotechnological applications that use plant biomass as a substrate ...

GalR, GalX and AraR co‐regulate d‐galactose and l‐arabinose utilization in Aspergillus nidulans
Summary Filamentous fungi produce a wide variety of enzymes in order to efficiently degrade plant cell wall polysaccharides. The production of these enzymes is controlled by transcriptional regulators, which also control the catabolic pathways that ...
