Lichen-forming fungi: potential sources of novel metabolites.

Trends in biotechnology - 1 Dec 1991

Crittenden P D, Porter N

Abstract excerpt

The challenge for today's pharmaceutical industry lies in the discovery and development of new, pharmacologically active molecules. Metabolites produced by microorganisms, and fungi in particular, are a resource for which the therapeutic potential has been recognized, but one that remains largely unexplored and unexploited. Approximately 20% of all known fungal species are obligate symbionts in lichens; this...
