Regulatory mechanism of trichothecene biosynthesis in Fusarium graminearum [PDF]
Among the genes involved in the biosynthesis of trichothecene (Tri genes), Tri6 and Tri10 encode a transcription factor with unique Cys2His2 zinc finger domains and a regulatory protein with no consensus DNA-binding sequences, respectively.

Role of the Gene tri14 in Biosynthesis of the Trichothecene Toxin Harzianum A in Trichoderma arundinaceum [PDF]
Trichothecenes are a family of toxic metabolites produced by multiple fungal species. All trichothecene analogs include an epoxide-containing tricyclic structure known as 12,13-epoxytrichothec-9-ene (EPT) but differ by the presence, absence and types of ...

A Novel Trichothecene Toxin Phenotype Associated with Horizontal Gene Transfer and a Change in Gene Function in Fusarium [PDF]
Fusarium trichothecenes are among the mycotoxins of most concern to food and feed safety. Production of these mycotoxins and presence of the trichothecene biosynthetic gene (TRI) cluster have been confirmed in only two multispecies lineages of Fusarium ...

Investigation on Trichothecene-Stimulated Lipid Peroxidation and Toxic Effects of Trichothecenes in Animals [PDF]
Three experiments were performed with mice intoxicated with trichothecene-contamined feed or directly into the stomach. Lipid peroxidation was estimated by the TBA value from liver samples, but since such a test seldom provided reliable results, lipid hydroperoxides and total carbonyl were also analyzed.

A European Database of Fusarium graminearum and F. culmorum Trichothecene Genotypes
Fusarium species, particularly Fusarium graminearum and F. culmorum, are the main cause of trichothecene type B contamination in cereals. Data on the distribution of Fusarium trichothecene genotypes in cereals in Europe are scattered in time and space ...

Phylogenetic Variation of Tri1 Gene and Development of PCR–RFLP Analysis for the Identification of NX Genotypes in Fusarium graminearum Species Complex [PDF]
NX toxins have been described as a novel group of type A trichothecenes produced by members of the Fusarium graminearum species complex (FGSC). Differences in structure between NX toxins and the common type B trichothecenes arise from functional ...
