Article Synopsis
- Scientists studied a special enzyme called Lysergyl peptide synthetase 1 that helps make toxic substances called ergopeptines from a type of acid and three amino acids.
- They compared the gene that makes this enzyme in two different fungi: Neotyphodium lolii and Claviceps purpurea, and found some similarities and differences in their genes.
- The study also discovered other related fungi with similar genes, including a different version of the enzyme in another fungus that helps grass grow better.
