TL;DR: Targeting efficiency and physiology of penicillinG producing Penicillium chrysogenum strains, in which the KU70 or KU80 homologues hdfA and hdfB had been deleted are characterized and the potential of DeltahdfAP is demonstrated.

TL;DR: Global samples of the two most common species were found to possess mating‐type genes in a near 1:1 ratio, and show evidence of recombination with little geographic population subdivision evident, suggesting that competition may facilitate species maintenance despite globally overlapping distributions.

TL;DR: While the oxidative cleavage of phosphoric acid swollen cellulose by Taus LPMO9B was boosted by the addition of H 2 O 2 as a co-substrate, this effect was not observed during the saccharification of acid pretreated corn stover, illustrating key differences between the lab-scale tests with artificial, lignin-free substrates and industrial settings with lignocellulosic biomass as substrate.

TL;DR: Both high number and blockwise distribution of non-esterified GalA in pectins are responsible for the anti-inflammatory effects via inhibition of TLR2-1.

TL;DR: The GPCRs in the genome of Penicillium chrysogenum were identified and a staggering fortytwo putative members of the new GPCR class XIV, the so-called Pth11 sensors of cellulosic material as reported for Neurospora crassa and some other fungi, were identified.
