Antarctic marine sediment as a source of filamentous fungi-derived antimicrobial and antitumor compounds of pharmaceutical interest Extremophiles (IF 2.9) Pub Date : 2024-03-27
Abstract Antarctica harbors a microbial diversity still poorly explored and of inestimable biotechnological value. Cold-adapted microorganisms can produce a diverse range of metabolites stable at low temperatures, making these compounds industrially interesting for biotechnological use. The present work investigated the biotechnological potential for antimicrobial and antitumor activity of filamentous

Diversity and enzymatic, biosurfactant and phytotoxic activities of culturable Ascomycota fungi present in marine sediments obtained near the South Shetland Islands, maritime Antarctica Extremophiles (IF 2.9) Pub Date : 2024-03-17
Abstract We studied the culturable fungal community recovered from deep marine sediments in the maritime Antarctic, and assessed their capabilities to produce exoenzymes, emulsifiers and metabolites with phytotoxic activity. Sixty-eight Ascomycota fungal isolates were recovered and identified. The most abundant taxon recovered was the yeast Meyerozyma guilliermondii, followed by the filamentous fungi

Physiological characterization of polyextremotolerant yeasts from cold environments of Patagonia Extremophiles (IF 2.9) Pub Date : 2024-02-11
Abstract Yeasts from cold environments have a wide range of strategies to prevent the negative effects of extreme conditions, including the production of metabolites of biotechnological interest. We investigated the growth profile and production of metabolites in yeast species isolated from cold environments. Thirty-eight strains were tested for their ability to grow at different temperatures (5–30 °C)
