Novel hemolytic proteins, ostreolysin and aegerolysin, were purified from the fruiting bodies
of the edible mushrooms Pleurotus ostreatus and Agrocybe aegerita. Both ostreolysin and …

Aegerolysins, discovered in fungi, bacteria and plants, are highly similar proteins with
interesting biological properties. Certain aegerolysins possess antitumoral, antiproliferative, and …

Cytochromes P450 (CYPs) catalyse diverse reactions and are key enzymes in fungal primary
and secondary metabolism, and xenobiotic detoxification. CYP enzymatic properties and …

Ostreolysin, a 15 kDa pore-forming protein from the edible oyster mushroom (Pleurotus
ostreatus), is lytic to membranes containing both cholesterol and sphingomyelin. Its cytotoxicity to …

Ostreolysin is a 16‐kDa cytolytic protein specifically expressed in primordia and fruiting
bodies of the edible mushroom Pleurotus ostreatus. To understand its interaction with lipid …

During fungal infections, plant cells secrete chitinases, which digest chitin in the fungal cell
walls. The recognition of released chitin oligomers via lysin motif (LysM)-containing immune …

Ostreolysin, a pore-forming protein from the edible oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus),
is a member of the aegerolysin protein family, a novel group of small acidic proteins found in …

Salicylic acid (SA) and brassinosteroids (BRs) are well known to regulate diverse processes
of plant development and stress responses, but the mechanisms by which these …

Fruiting initiation in mushrooms can be triggered by a variety of environmental and biochemical
stimuli, including substances of natural or synthetic origin. In this work ostreolysin, a …

In the mushrooms Pleurotus ostreatus and Agrocybe aegerita, expression of the hemolytic
proteins ostreolysin and aegerolysin, which belong to the aegerolysin family, has been shown …
