Abstract excerpt

The production of echinocandin B (ECB), a lipopolypeptide used for chemical manufacture of the anti-Candida agent Cilofungin, was accomplished by fermentation using a strain of Aspergillus nidulans. In addition to ECB, this fermentation also produces a significant amount of sterigmatocystin (ST), a potent carcinogen structurally related to the aflatoxins. Mutants blocked in the ST biosynthetic pathway were...
