A Revised Species Concept for Opportunistic Mucor Species Reveals Species-Specific Antifungal Susceptibility Profiles

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2019
Recently, the species concept of opportunistic Mucor circinelloides and its relatives has been revised, resulting in the recognition of its classical formae as independent species and the description of new species. In this study, we used isolates of all

Characterization of Four Novel dsRNA Viruses Isolated from Mucor hiemalis Strains

open access: yesViruses, 2021
We previously screened the total nucleic acid extracts of 123 Mucor strains for the presence of dsRNA molecules without further molecular analyses. Here, we characterized five novel dsRNA genomes isolated from four different Mucor hiemalis strains with ...

Biocatalytic Route to Chiral Precursors of β-Substituted-γ-Amino Acids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this work, we utilized commercial lipases (from Thermomyces lanuginosa, Rhizopus delemar, and Mucor miehei) as biocatalysts for the efficient synthesis of precursors of β-substituted-γ-amino acids.
