Two independent gene systems controlling recombination in Schizophyllum commune

Summary Mating competence in the fungusSchizophyllum commune is controlled by two unlinked factors, each of which consists of two closely linked loci. The recombination frequencies between the loci of each factor were determined for a dikaryon and a group of back-crosses, at two meiotic temperatures. The results establish that the frequencies of recombination in the two regions are under genetic control. Although the two regions are similar in structure and function they are under separate recombination control.     

Trehalase in Schizophyllum commune

Summary The hydrolytic enzyme trehalase was demonstrated in mycelial extracts of Schizophyllum commune cultured on either glucose or trehalose as sole source of carbon and energy. The enzyme was also detected in culture-filtrates of trehalose-grown cells. The intracellular forms of trehalase from glucose- and trehalose-cultures were similar in their response to dialysis and heat treatment as well as pH optimum, affinity constant for trehalose and resistance to a variety of sugar alcohols.     

Chlamydospores of Schizophyllum commune

Summary The detection of chlamydospores of Schizophyllum commune in liquid medium is described. The short thick walled cells are formed by intercalary septation which leads also to modification of the septal complex. The chemical composition of the cell walls of chlamydospores is similar to the composition of the vegetative mycelium.     

普通裂褶菌真菌学及实验室研究进展

普通裂褶菌是一种条件致病菌,可侵犯人体多个器官多种组织,导致各种表现形式的疾病,如脑脓肿、脑膜炎、鼻窦炎、肺部真菌球、蜂窝肺、肺结节、甲真菌病等.由于普通裂褶菌感染引起的真菌病病例少见报道,临床医生对其认识不足,再加上某些实验室不具备鉴定条件,所以感染该菌的病例常被漏诊、误诊.现将近年来临床分离的普通裂褶菌株真菌学及实...     

裂褶菌化学成分研究

经硅胶反复柱层析,从裂褶菌子实体的醇提物中首次分离得到8个化合物,利用波谱方法及理化性质鉴定为5,α8α-过氧麦角甾-6,22E-二烯-3β-醇(1)、麦角甾-7,22-二烯-3β醇(2)、(22E,24R)-麦角甾-7,22-二烯-3β,5α,6β-三醇(3)、烟酸(4)、苯甲酸(5)、D-阿拉伯糖醇(6)、甘露醇(7)、海藻糖(8)。     

Transformation of the basidiomycete, Schizophyllum commune

Summary Protoplasts of aSchizophyllum commune tryptophan auxotroph (trp1), deficient in indole-3-glycerol phosphate synthetase (IGPS), were transformed to trp⁺ with plasmid DNA containing the SchizophyllumTRP1 sequence. Efficiencies up to 30 transformants per microgram of plasmid DNA were obtained. Southern blots reveal that the transforming DNA is integrated in chromosomal DNA. The trp⁺ phenotype of transformants is stable in meiosis and mitosis. Transformants possess IGPS activity comparable to wild-type cells.
