Pezizomycetes Genomes Reveal Diverse P450 Complements Characteristic of Saprotrophic and Ectomycorrhizal Lifestyles [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2023 Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYPs/P450s) are heme proteins that play a role in organisms’ primary and secondary metabolism. P450s play an important role in organism adaptation since lifestyle influences P450 composition in their genome.

Genome-Wide Analysis of the Cytochrome P450 Monooxygenases in the Lichenized Fungi of the Class Lecanoromycetes [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2023 Lichens are unique organisms that exhibit a permanent symbiosis between fungi and algae or fungi and photosynthetic bacteria. Lichens have been found to produce biotechnologically valuable secondary metabolites. A handful of studies showed that tailoring

Heterogeneous Lineages of DNA Transposons Encode a TET/JBP Dioxygenase in Fungi [PDF]
BiologyEpigenetic DNA modification is a key component of the defense system against invading nucleic acids such as transposons. TET/JBP dioxygenases oxidize 5-methylcytosine and lead to its replacement by cytosine in mammals.

Cytological studies reveal high variation in ascospore number and shape and conidia produced directly from ascospores in Morchella galilaea [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Spores are important as dispersal and survival propagules in fungi. In this study we investigated the variation in number, shape, size and germination mode of ascospores in Morchella galilaea, the only species of the genus Morchella known to fruit in the

Thermotolerance and post-fire growth in Rhizina undulata is associated with the expansion of heat stress-related protein families [PDF]
BMC GenomicsBackground Rhizina undulata is an important tree pathogen, infecting a wide variety of conifer species, including those in the genus Pinus. The fungus relies on heat shock-mediated activation of its ascospores, which require high temperatures to initiate
