Gil-Duran C, Ravanal M, Ubilla P, Vaca I, Chavez R
Fungal Biol . 2018 Aug; 122(9):875-882. PMID: 30115321
Numerous endoxylanases from mesophilic fungi have been purified and characterized. However, endoxylanases from cold-adapted fungi, especially those from Antarctica, have been less studied. In this work, a cDNA from the...

Rojas-Aedo J, Gil-Duran C, Goity A, Vaca I, Levican G, Larrondo L, et al.
Microbiol Res . 2018 Jun; 212-213:67-74. PMID: 29853169
Penicillium roqueforti is used in the production of several kinds of ripened blue-veined cheeses. In addition, this fungus produces interesting secondary metabolites such as roquefortine C, andrastin A and mycophenolic...

Torrent C, Gil-Duran C, Rojas-Aedo J, Medina E, Vaca I, Castro P, et al.
Front Microbiol . 2017 Dec; 8:2424. PMID: 29270163
The (suppressor of four kinase) gene has been mainly studied in , where it was shown to be involved in growth and thermal stress resistance. This gene is widely conserved...

Garcia-Rico R, Gil-Duran C, Rojas-Aedo J, Vaca I, Figueroa L, Levican G, et al.
Fungal Biol . 2017 Aug; 121(9):754-762. PMID: 28800847
The fungus Penicillium camemberti is widely used in the ripening of various bloomy-rind cheeses. Several properties of P. camemberti are important in cheese ripening, including conidiation, growth and enzyme production,...

Chua S, Cornejo A, van Eersel J, Stevens C, Vaca I, Cueto M, et al.
ACS Chem Neurosci . 2017 Jan; 8(4):743-751. PMID: 28067492
In Alzheimer's disease, the microtubule-associated protein tau forms intracellular neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs). A critical step in the formation of NFTs is the conversion of soluble tau into insoluble filaments. Accordingly,...

Front Microbiol . 2015 Oct; 6:903. PMID: 26441853
Natural product search is undergoing resurgence upon the discovery of a huge previously unknown potential for secondary metabolite (SM) production hidden in microbial genomes. This is also the case for...

PLoS One . 2015 Mar; 10(3):e0120740. PMID: 25811807
Proteins containing Zn(II)(2)Cys(6) domains are exclusively found in fungi and yeasts. Genes encoding this class of proteins are broadly distributed in fungi, but few of them have been functionally characterized....

J Nat Prod . 2015 Mar; 78(4):919-23. PMID: 25732560
Four new nitroasterric acid derivatives, pseudogymnoascins A-C (1-3) and 3-nitroasterric acid (4), along with the two known compounds questin and pyriculamide, were obtained from the cultures of a Pseudogymnoascus sp....
