Linoleate 9R-dioxygenase and allene oxide synthase activities of Aspergillus terreus.
Archives of biochemistry and biophysics, 2010Co-Authors: Fredrik Jernerén, Inga Hoffmann, Ernst H. OliwAbstract:Oxygenation of linoleic acid by Aspergillus terreus was studied with LC-MS/MS. 9(R)-Hydroperoxy-10(E),12(Z)-octadecadienoic acid (9R-HpODE) was identified along with 10(R)-hydroxy-8(E),12(Z)-octade ...

Rep-PCR and RAPD-PCR fingerprinting of Aspergillus terreus.
Medical mycology, 2013Co-Authors: Wolfgang Mutschlechner, Katharina Grif, Gerhard Blum, Cornelia Lass-flörlAbstract:We compared two PCR methods for molecular typing the medically important filamentous fungus Aspergillus terreus. In a set of 46 strains investigated we found 19 and 12 different fingerprinting types obtained by random amplified polymorphic DNA PCR (RAPD) and semi-automated repetitive element PCR (rep-PCR), respectively.

Potential Basis for Amphotericin B Resistance in Aspergillus terreus
Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy, 2008Co-Authors: Gerhard Blum, Susanne Perkhofer, Hubertus Haas, Markus Schrettl, Reinhard Würzner, Manfred P. Dierich, Cornelia Lass-flörlAbstract:This study investigated the basis for intrinsic amphotericin B (AMB) resistance in Aspergillus terreus. The ergosterol content, cell wall composition, and lipid peroxidation level had no influence on AMB resistance. The level of catalase production in A. terreus was significantly higher than that in A. fumigatus (P < 0.05). This higher-level production may contribute to AMB resistance in A. terreus since oxidative damage has been implicated in AMB action.

Purification and characterization of cis-aconitic acid decarboxylase from Aspergillus terreus TN484-M1
Journal of bioscience and bioengineering, 2002Co-Authors: Lies Dwiarti, Ken Yamane, Hitoshi Yamatani, Prihardi Kahar, Mitsuyasu OkabeAbstract:Abstract cis -Aconitic acid decarboxylase (CAD) was assumed to be a key enzyme in the production of itaconic acid by comparing the activity of CAD from Aspergillus terreus TN484-M1 with that of CAD from the low-itaconate yielding strain Aspergillus terreus CM85J. The constitutive CAD was purified to homogeneity from A. terreus TN484-M1 by ammonium sulfate fractionation, and column chromatography on DEAE-toyopearl, Butyl-toyopearl, and Sephacryl S200HR, and then characterized. A molecular mass of 55 kDa for the native enzyme was determined by SDS-PAGE. The enzymic activity was optimal at a pH of 6.2 and temperature of 45°C. The K m value for cis -aconitic acid was determined as 2.45 mM (pH 6.2, 37°C). The enzyme was completely inactivated by Hg + , Cu 2+ , Zn 2+ , p -chloromercuribenzoate, and 5,5′-dithio- bis (2-nitrobenzoate).
