Proteus mirabilis was highly sensitive followed by E.aureogens, B.subtilis and K. pneumoniae. Rest of the bacteria was intermediate in their sensitivity when compared with the streptomycin as standard. Similarly P.aurantiogriseum and Paeciolomyces varioti were comparatively more sensitive than the other fungi under study. Aspergillus terreus and P.expansum was sensitive to an intermediate extent. Simultaneously the DNA damaging activity of OTA was also evaluated by PRSET-B plasmid DNA treated with H2O2 plus different concentrations of OTA. The highest DNA stand breaks was observed on even at 25μg/ml of OTA and complete degradation of DNA stand breaks was observed on 30μg/ml of OTA.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0.36</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vankudoth, Koteswara Rao</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Penugonda, Shilpa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sivadevuni, Girisham</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Reddy, S.

Methods: Fusarium species associated with the finger millets were isolated and identified phenotypically and further confirmed by molecular methods by Polymerase Chain Reaction [PCR]. Monosporic seven day old F. aethiopicum and F. culmorum were grown in CYA broth and incubated at 27±2°C on rotary shaker for 21 days at 120 rpm. At the end of 21 day incubation period, cultures were harvested for determination of fungal biomass. The resultant culture filtrates were extracted twice with ethyl acetate and concentrated to get and final concentration of 1 ml in methanol and employed for RP-HPLC analysis for detection of DON and NIV production. Results: Finger millets flour medium induced the highest amount of mycelial growth, DON and NIV production by F. aethiopicum. However, F. culmorum achieved highest amount of hyphal growth, DON and NIV production under the influence of yeast extract sucrose [YES] medium. Maize flour medium, rice flour medium and sorghum flour medium was next preffered substrates. Optimum pH of 5.5-6.5 and temperature of 20-35°C for growth, DON and NIV production was observed. Both the species of Fusarium failed to grow and produce toxins at pH 2.5-3.5 and temperature of 40°C. Yeast extract was most favorable for maximum DON and NIV production, which increased with an increase in its concentration. On the other hand, malt extract and beef extract induced good growth and mycotoxin production at comparatively higher concentration in both the species of Fusarium under study. Conclusion: Comparatively food based media were the better substrates than synthetic media for both growth and DOIN and NIV production by two species of Fusarium under investigation. A positive correlation coefficient [r] on growth [0.458], DON [0.744] and NIV [0.882] was recorded among the media and both the species of Fusarium.

Culture filtrate of P. nordicum, P. verrucosum, P. chrysogenum, P. commune, P. citrinum, P.camemberti and P. digitatum were comparatively more toxic and significantly inhibited the seed germination and seedling growth varied with the species. However, pathogenicity of different inoculum of Penicillium species also exhibited varying seedling growth inhibition with P. citrinum, P. chrysogenum, P. commune, P. italicum, P. verrucosum and P. expansum assayed by water agar method. A significant phytotoxicity of these species inhibited coleoptile 32-70%, radicle 10-87% and leaf growth 20-86% with correlation coefficient 0.65, 0.67 and 0.79%, and were observed respectively. In-vitro mycotoxin production was assayed by culture filtrates of major mycotoxigenic strains revealed production of ochratoxin A (OTA), cyclopiazonic acid (CPA), rubratoxin B (RTB), griseofulvin (GRI), citrinin (CIT), patulin (PAT), penitrem A (PENA) and mycophenolic acid (MPA) screened by TLC/HPLC. Toxicity of species of Penicillium on seed germination, coleoptile, radicle, and leaf elongation inhibition may be attributed to the toxin-chemotypes produced by the species of Penicillium. However, even non-toxigenic strains of Penicillium also caused mild inhibition which may be attributed to the presence of other toxin-chemotypes.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">0.903</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>10</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vankudoth, Koteswara Rao</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rao, K.

Volatiles such as phenols and formic acid which have no residual effect were proved to be effective in checking the growth and OTA production by both the species of Penicillium under study. Vapours of phenols and formic acid significantly inhibited OTA produced by P. verrucosum, while aniline and toluene inhibited the OTA production by P. nordicum to a significant level. A positive correlation coefficient was observed between the growth and toxin production by P. verrucosum (0.55) and P. nordicum (0.66) against different volatile compounds tried. Among food preservatives, sodium acetate and sodium metabisulphate were responsible for total inhibition of OTA production by P. verrucosum at 150 lg/ml concentration. P. nordicum proved to be comparatively more resistant to these substances than P. verrucosum. In conclusion of present investigation, phenol, formic acid, amyl alcohol, propionic acid, sodium acetate and sodium metabisulphate were found to be effective in checking the growth and OTA production by both the species of Penicillium under investigation, and can be exploited in protecting the poultry feed from unwanted mould growth and mycotoxin production.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><num-vols><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></num-vols></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sreelatha, B.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vankudoth, Koteswara Rao</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kumar, R.

Olive oil and triacetin (0.1%) were added to the basal medium, which stimulated the lipase production. The maximum lipase was produced by GSLMBKU-10 and GSLMBKU-13 in yeast extract starch medium supplemented with triacetin (0.1%). The optimum pH was recorded at 6.0, 6.5 and 7.0 by GSLMBKU-10, GSLMBKU-13 and GSLMBKU-14 respectively. T. lanuginosus GSLMBKU-10 strains failed to produce lipase at pH 8.0. The optimum temperature for lipase production was observed at 45 °C by GSLMBKU-14 and GSLMBKU-10, while that for GSLMBKU-13 was at 50 °C. The marginal temperature ranged from 45 °C to 50 °C for both lipase production and vegetative growth by the three strains of T. lanuginosus under study.

Thermophilic fungi remained unexplored despite having a unique mechanism of growing at higher temperatures and performing wide diverse reactions. The present investigation is directed to isolate a promising thermophilic fungal strain capable of biotransformation using spironolactone as a model drug. Two-stage fermentation protocol was followed for the process. The transformation of spironolactone was identified by HPLC and structure elucidation of the metabolites was done with the help of LC-MS/MS analysis and previous reports. A strain of Thermomyces lanuginosus isolated from decomposed banana peel waste was found to be most promising in transforming spironolactone to 4 metabolites viz.7α-thiospironolactone (M1) canrenone (M2), 7α-thiomethylspironolactone (M3) and 6β-OH-7α-thiomethylspironolactone (M4), the major mammalian metabolites reported previously. The synthesis of metabolites of spironolactone by T.lanuginosus similar to mammals clearly states that this fungus possess enzyme system similar to mammals. Hence, this fungus has the potential to use as a model organism for studying drug metabolism.</style></abstract><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.282</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Boral, Debjyoti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vankudoth, Koteswara Rao</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ramasamy, Sureshkumar</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Structural insight into a membrane intrinsic Acyltransferase from Chlorobium tepidum </style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Current Microbiology</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2019</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NOV</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">76</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1290-1297</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The Lipid A component of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria is an integral part of the permeability barrier known as LPS, which actively prevents the uptake of bactericidal compounds. It is clinically very significant, as it is known to elicit a strong immune response in the humans, through the TLR4 complex. The Lipid A species are synthesized through a highly conserved multistep biosynthetic pathway. The final step is catalyzed by acyltransferases of the HtrB/MsbB family, which are members of a superfamily of enzymes, present in all domains of life with important roles to play in various biological processes. The investigation of a putative dual functioning enzyme which can add both laurate and myristate residues to the (Kdo)(2)-lipid IVA (precursor of Lipid A) would give a snapshot into the versatility of substrates that these enzymes catalyze. In this study we have cloned and purified to homogeneity, such a putative dual functional acyltransferase from Chlorobium tepidum, and attempted to study the enzyme in more details in terms of its sequence and structural aspects, as it lacks conserved residues with other enzymes of the same family.&lt;/p&gt;
