    A scalable platform to identify fungal secondary metabolites and their gene clusters

    Coupling the use of artificial chromosomes with metabolomics enables the high-throughput linkage of fungal natural products with their biosynthetic gene clusters. This method was used here to identify a novel...

    2 Insight into Fungal Secondary Metabolism from Ten Years of LaeA Research

    In 2004, the protein LaeA was identified and characterized as a global regulator of secondary metabolism in the fungus Aspergillus nidulans. Since this initial report, LaeA has been further described as a member ...

    Kalilo plasmids are a family of four distinct members with individual global distributions across species

    Kalilo is a linear 9-kb plasmid, isolated originally from Hawaiian strains of the heterothallic fungus Neurospora intermedia. Its properties include terminal inverted repeats, two ORFs coding for a presumptive D...

    Transfer of Neurospora kalilo plasmids among species and strains by introgression

    There are four different variants of the kalilo “family” of linear mitochondrial plasmids. This family is found in several heterothallic species and one pseudohomothallic species of Neurospora, as well as in one...
