antioxidant hydroanthraquinones from the marine algal-derived endophytic fungus talaromyces islandicus en-501. | five new polyhydroxylated hydroanthraquinone derivatives, namely, 8-hydroxyconiothyrinone b (1), 8,11-dihydroxyconiothyrinone b (2), 4r,8-dihydroxyconiothyrinone b (3), 4s,8-dihydroxyconiothyrinone b (4), and 4s,8-dihydroxy-10-o-methyldendryol e (5), were isolated and identified from the culture extract of talaromyces islandicus en-501, an endophytic fungus obtained from the inner tissue of the marine red alga laurencia okamurai. the structures of these compounds were established on the basis of ... | 2017 | 27992187 |
two new diphenylketones and a new xanthone from talaromyces islandicus en-501, an endophytic fungus derived from the marine red alga laurencia okamurai. | two new diphenylketones (1 and 2), a new xanthone (3), and a known xanthone analogue (4) were isolated and identified from talaromyces islandicus en-501, an endophytic fungus obtained from the fresh collected marine red alga laurencia okamurai. their structures were elucidated on the basis of nmr spectroscopic and x-ray crystallographic analysis. the joint isolation of benzophenones and xanthones from the same fungal strain supports the biogenesis of xanthones via a benzophenone intermediate. it ... | 2016 | 27941601 |
the cyclochlorotine mycotoxin is produced by the nonribosomal peptide synthetase cctn in talaromyces islandicus ('penicillium islandicum'). | talaromyces islandicus ('penicillium islandicum') is a widespread foodborne mold that produces numerous secondary metabolites, among them potent mycotoxins belonging to different chemical classes. a notable metabolite is the hepatotoxic and carcinogenic pentapeptide cyclochlorotine that contains the unusual amino acids β-phenylalanine, 2-aminobutyrate and 3,4-dichloroproline. although the chemical structure has been known for over five decades, nothing is known about the biosynthetic pathway of ... | 2016 | 26954535 |
draft genome sequence of talaromyces islandicus ("penicillium islandicum") wf-38-12, a neglected mold with significant biotechnological potential. | talaromyces (penicillium) islandicus is a common mold found in stored rice or cereals. it has a highly versatile metabolism characterized by the secretion of numerous biopolymer degrading enzymes, mycotoxins, and anthraquinones that altogether offer a broad range of potential industrial applications. here, we report the draft genome sequence of talaromyces islandicus, which provides the basis of a biotechnological usage of this species. | 2015 | 26197417 |
