متن کاملFermentative production of amanita toxins by a strain of Galerina marginata.
Among the violently poisonous species of Amanita, none has received more attention than A. phalloides (Fr.) Secr. By 1959, five related cyclopeptidic toxins had been extracted from this mushroom and named phalloidin, phalloin, and a-, j3-, and y-amanitin. T. Wieland and 0. Wieland (Pharmacol. Rev. 11:87, 1959) reviewed the chemistry and toxicology of these compounds. A sixth toxin, phallacidin,...
متن کاملTrypsin-specific Inhibitors from the Macrolepiota procera, Armillaria mellea and Amanita phalloides wild mushrooms.
Wild growing mushrooms are a rich source of novel proteins with unique features. We have isolated and characterized trypsin inhibitors from two edible mushrooms, the honey fungus (Armillaria mellea) and the parasol mushroom (Macrolepiota procera), and from the poisonous death cap (Amanita phalloides). The trypsin inhibitors isolated: armespin, macrospin and amphaspin, have similar molecular mas...
متن کاملDistribution and abundance of the introduced ectomycorrhizal fungus Amanita phalloides in North America.
Despite a growing awareness of the global reach of ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungal introductions, little is known about the fate of introduced EM fungi in novel ranges. Using herbarium specimens, species distribution models, and field collections of sporocarps, root tips and extramatrical mycelia, we assessed the distribution and abundance of the European species Amanita phalloides in North America...
