Because of the broad substrate specificity, these enzymes are of interest for many different biotechnological applications. ... -
Pathogenicity in Heterobasidion annosum
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2006) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaHeterobasidion annosum is one of the major pathogens to conifers in the Northern Hemisphere. Research has been carried out to characterise the molecular mechanism of the pathogenicity in this basidiomycete. One factor that ... -
QTL mapping of pathogenicity in Heterobasidion annosum sensu lato
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2006) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaHeterobasidion annosum (Fr.) Bref. sensu lato, casual agent of annosum root rot in conifers, is the economical most devastating forest pathogen in the northern hemisphere. A genetic linkage map of H. annosum, was ... -
Ras module function is involved in regulation of sexual development Schizophyllum commune
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2006) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe white rot fungus Schizophyllum commune is used as a model to investigate sexual development in hymenomycetes. We isolated the gene gap1 encoding a GTPase-activating protein for Ras. Disruption of gap1 should therefore ... -
Rat cytochrome P450-mediated transformation of dichlorodibenzo-Pdioxins by recombinant white-rot basidiomycete Coriolus hirsutus
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2006) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaRat cytochrome P450, CYP1A1, has been reported to play an important role in the metabolism of mono-trichlorodibenzo-p-dioxins (M-TriCDDs). To breed lignin (and M-TetraCDDs)-degrading basidiomycete Coriolus hirsutus strains ... -
The roles of SC3 and SC15 of Schizophyllum commune during growth on wood
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2006) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe SC3 hydrophobin plays several roles in growth and development of S. commune. It lowers the surface tension of the aqueous substrate, enabling aerial growth, and it coats the aerial hyphae rendering them hydrophobic. ... -
Secondary structure of the ribosomal PreRNA ITS2 region as a tool in studies of fungal diversity and phylogeny
(Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa, 2006) Contribución a congreso / Biltzarrerako ekarpenaThe ribosomal RNA gene, and particularly its 18S and 25S sequences, have proven valuable in large-scale phylogenetic analyses. The ITS region of the ribosomal RNA gene, instead, has not been regarded so useful in this ... -
