Identification of the Sfp-Type PPTase EppA from the Lichenized Fungus Evernia prunastri
In the last decades, natural products from lichens have gained more interest for pharmaceutical application due to the broad range of their biological activity. However, isolation of the compounds of interest directly from the lichen is neither feasible nor sustainable due to slow growth of many lichens. In order to develop a pipeline for heterologous expression of lichen biosynthesis gene clus...
متن کاملPhytase activity in lichens
Phytase activity was investigated in 13 lichen species using a novel assay method. The work tested the hypothesis that phytase is a component of the suite of surface-bound lichen enzymes that hydrolyse simple organic forms of phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) deposited onto the thallus surface. Hydrolysis of inositol hexaphosphate (InsP6 , the substrate for phytase) and appearance of lower-order ...
متن کاملPurification and Properties of the Constitutive Arginase of Evernia prunastri.
Constitutive arginase (molecular weight 330,000) 920-fold purified from Evernia prunastri thallus, is activated by putrescine, l-ornithine, and agmatine with K(a) values of 2.7, 1.1, and 5.8 millimolar, respectively. Constitutive arginase is also activated by endogenous l-arginine, reaching its maximum activity at 16 hours of incubation on Tris-HCl (pH 9.15) with a subsequent decrease. Urea beh...
متن کاملChanges in the accumulation of cAMP levels were measured by the isotope dilution assay using protein kinase A in the lichen Evernia
Changes in the accumulation of cAMP levels were measured by the isotope dilution assay using protein kinase A in the lichen Evernia 22 21 prunastri at varying light conditions. cAMP levels decreased following exposure to low irradiance (20 mmol quanta m s , and below the compensation point for photosynthesis) of red light (600–710-nm wave length) and increased by 50% after far-red light illumin...
متن کاملHigh performance liquid chromatography of the dansyl derivatives of putrescine, spermidine, and spermine.
A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method, based on dansylation and fluorescence detection, is described for the estimation of putrescine, spermidine, and spermine in lichen (Evernia prunastri [L.]) samples. Because of the high concentrations of phenols and salts, dansylation was followed by a pre-HPLC purification step. Both flow rate and mobile phase (methanol:water) followed a ...
