Copper starvation induces antimicrobial isocyanide integrated into two distinct biosynthetic pathways in fungi

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Tae Hyung Won from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the paper: Copper starvation induces antimicrobial isocyanide integrated into two distinct biosynthetic pathways in fungi, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 29/07/2022
  • what: The authors show, using untargeted comparative metabolomics, that CrmA generates a valine-derived isocyanide that contributes to two distinct biosynthetic pathways under copper-limiting conditions. The study shows that this approach can enable major advances in understanding fungal secondary_metabolism, including genuinely new biosynthetic pathways and small-molecule functions.
  • how: The authors used mixed cultures of A. fumigatus u0394crmA which produces . . .
