Alteration of Fermentative Metabolism Enhances Mucor circinelloides Virulence. [PDF]
Infect Immun, 2020 The fungus Mucor circinelloides undergoes yeast-mold dimorphism, a developmental process associated with its capability as a human opportunistic pathogen. Dimorphism is strongly influenced by carbon metabolism, and hence the type of metabolism likely affects fungus virulence.

Characterization and control of Mucor circinelloides spoilage in yogurt [PDF]
International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2016 Consumer confidence in the food industry is severely affected by large-scale spoilage incidents. However, relatively little research exists on spoilage potential of members of the fungal subphylum Mucormycotina (e.g. Mucor), which includes dimorphic spoilage organisms that can switch between a yeast-like and hyphal phase depending on environmental ...

Biosynthesis of triacylglycerol in the filamentous fungus Mucor circinelloides [PDF]
Microbiology, 1998 Lipid metabolism was studied in 2-d-old liquid cultures of Mucor circinelloides grown at 25 C. Under these conditions, oil accumulated to 0.5 g I-1 with a ?-linolenic acid content (?18:3) of 60 mg I-1. The major labelled lipids in cultures incubated with [14C]acetate were triacylglycerol (TAG), phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE).

A new species concept for the clinically relevant Mucor circinelloides complex. [PDF]
Persoonia, 2020 Mucor species are common soil fungi but also known as agents of human infections (mucormycosis) and used in food production and biotechnology. Mucor circinelloides is the Mucor species that is most frequently isolated from clinical sources.

mBio, 2014 Food-borne pathogens are ongoing problems, and new pathogens are emerging. The impact of fungi, however, is largely underestimated. Recently, commercial yogurts contaminated with Mucor circinelloides were sold, and >200 consumers became ill with nausea ...

Expression of active mucor miehei aspartic protease in Mucor circinelloides [PDF]
Carlsberg Research Communications, 1987 The gene encoding the aspartic protease in the mold Mucor miehei was isolated and a vector, pMA67, was constructed to allow expression of this gene in Mucor circinelloides. pMA67 contained the Amp gene for selection in E. coli, a Leu+ gene for selection in M. circinelloides and the M. miehei aspartic prepro-protease gene.

Mucor circinelloides: Growth, Maintenance, and Genetic Manipulation [PDF]
Current Protocols in Microbiology, 2018 AbstractMucor circinelloides is a fungus that belongs to the order Mucorales. It grows as mold in the environment and can cause mucormycosis, a potentially fatal infection in immunocompromised patients. M. circinelloides is a biodiesel producer and serves as a model organism for studying several biological processes, such as light responses and RNA ...
