There is an enormous potential for cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) systems based on filamentous fungi in view of their simple, fast and mostly inexpensive cultivation with high biomass space-time yields and in view of their catalytic capacity. In 12 of the 22 different filamentous fungi examined, in vitro translation of at least one of the two reporter proteins GFP and firefly luciferase was detected. The lysates showing translation of a reporter protein usually were able to synthesize a functional cell-free expressed unspecific peroxygenase (UPO) from the basidiomycete Cyclocybe (Agrocybe) aegerita.

A terpene synthase gene (mtas) from Menisporopsis theobromae BCC 4162 was heterologously expressed in Aspergillus oryzae NSAR1, resulting in the production of (+)-aristolochene. Mutations were introduced in MtAS at aromatic residues (Y83, F103, F169, and W323) surrounding the active site, which are critical for precursor cyclisation and intermediate stabilisation during aristolochene biosynthesis. Transformants harbouring mutated mtas, specifically F103W, F169A and F169W, produced (2R,4S,5R,7S)-2-hydroxyaristolochene as the major product, along with aristolochene and other tentative metabolites, including germacrene A and sesquiterpenoids.

Background: Phaeohyphomycosis is a very rare fungal infection, which is one of more usual complications in immunocompromised and/or traumatic patients, has never been reported especially in a cytological field. We describe a first case of subcutaneous phaeohyphomycosis caused by Exophiala xenobiotica (E. xenobiotica) in a poorly controlled diabetic patient, and in which a correct cytological diagnosis of phaeohyphomycosis was possible to conclude.

Purpose: A promising feature of marine sponges is the potential anticancer efficacy of their secondary metabolites. The objective of this study was to explore the anticancer activities of compounds from the fungal symbiont of on breast cancer cells.
Methods: In the present research, , an endophytic fungal strain derived from the marine sponge was successfully isolated and characterized.
