Genomic Characterization Provides New Insights Into the Biosynthesis of the Secondary Metabolite Huperzine a in the Endophyte Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Cg01
8 Jan 2019
Abstract excerpt
A reliable source of Huperzine A (HupA) meets an urgent need due to its wide use in Alzheimer’s disease treatment. In this study, we sequenced and characterized the whole genomes of two HupA-producing endophytes, Penicillium polonicum hy4 and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Cg01, to clarify the mechanism of HupA biosynthesis. The whole genomes of hy4 and Cg01 were 33.92 Mb and 55.77 Mb, respectively. We compared...
