Evolution of fungal tuberculosis necrotizing toxin (TNT) domain‐containing enzymes reveals divergent adaptations to enhance NAD cleavage

Protein Science, Volume 33, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract Tuberculosis necrotizing toxin (TNT) is a protein domain discovered on the outer membrane of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), and the fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus. TNT domains have pure NAD(P) hydrolytic activity, setting them apart from other NAD‐cleaving domains such as ADP‐ribosyl cyclase and Toll/interleukin‐1 receptor homology ...

Amplicon-Metagenomic Analysis of Fungi from Antarctic Terrestrial Habitats

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
In cold environments such as polar regions, microorganisms play important ecological roles, and most of our knowledge about them comes from studies of cultivable microorganisms.

Cryptic species and species pairs in lichens: A discussion on the relationship between molecular phylogenies and morphological characters

Anales del Jardín Botánico de Madrid, 2009
As with most disciplines in biology, molecular genetics has revolutionized our understanding of lichenized fungi. Nowhere has this been more true than in systematics, especially in the delimitation of species.

Chemoinformatic exploration of RiPP biosynthetic gene clusters in Lecanoromycetes

Abstract Background Ribosomally synthesized and posttranslationally modified peptides (RiPPs) constitute a relatively newly discovered biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) class involved in defense-related functions in fungi, with significant therapeutic potential.

Paraphyly and cryptic diversity unveils unexpected challenges in the “naked lichens” (Calvitimela, Lecanoromycetes, Ascomycota)

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution
Molecular phylogenetics has revolutionized the taxonomy of crustose lichens and revealed an extensive amount of cryptic diversity. Resolving the relationships between genera in the crustose lichen family Tephromelataceae has proven difficult and the taxon limits within the genus Calvitimela are only partly understood.

Range extension of the lichenized ascomycete, Kremp., 1882 (Lecanoromycetes: Lecanorales: Cladoniaceae), from Similipal Biosphere Reserve of Odisha

Journal of Threatened Taxa
The lichen diversity of the Similipal Biosphere Reserve in Odisha remains underexplored, particularly for fruticose lichens genus Cladonia P. Browne. The present study aims to document a specimen collected from the high-altitude region of the reserve ...
