Disease relevance of Coprinus

 

High impact information on Coprinus

  • This inference is supported by experimental results on the Coprinus macrorhizus peroxidase (52), manganese peroxidase (51), lignin peroxidase (50) and, less definitively, lactoperoxidase (90) [2].
  • We examined Spo11 function in a multicellular fungus, Coprinus cinereus [3].
  • The enzyme is heavily glycosylated and consists of three cupredoxin-like domains, similar to those found in the Cu-depleted basidiomycete laccase from Coprinus cinereus [4].
  • We examined the inheritance of 5-methylcytosine residues at a centromere-linked locus in the basidiomycete Coprinus cinereus [5].
  • Two forms of DNA polymerase have been studied in the basidiomycete Coprinus [6].
 

Biological context of Coprinus

 

Anatomical context of Coprinus

 

Associations of Coprinus with chemical compounds

  • We demonstrate that myeloperoxidase (MPO) and Coprinus cinereus peroxidase (CiP) catalyze the enantioselective epoxidation of styrene and a number of substituted derivatives with a reasonable enantiomeric excess (up to 80%) and in a moderate yield [13].
  • CONCLUSIONS: rCop c 1, the first cloned allergen from the genus Coprinus, fulfills all the criteria required to be classified as a clinically relevant allergen [14].
  • Resonance Raman (RR) spectra for the resting state ferric and the reduced ferrous forms of recombinant Coprinus cinereus peroxidase (CIP), obtained with different excitation wavelengths and in polarized light, are reported [15].
  • The peroxidase from Coprinus macrorhizus is inactivated by phenylhydrazine or sodium azide in the presence of H2O2 [16].
  • Carbon-13 (of the ferrous CO adduct) and nitrogen-15 (of the cyanide complex) NMR studies together with proton NMR studies of the native and cyanide-complexed Coprinus peroxidase are consistent with coordination of a proximal histidine ligand [17].
 

Gene context of Coprinus

  • Molecular characterization of TRP1, a gene coding for tryptophan synthetase in the basidiomycete Coprinus cinereus [18].
  • We prepared cDNAs and recombinant proteins of the full-length, N-terminal, and the C-terminal domains of LIM15/DMC1 (CoLIM15) and RAD51 (CoRAD51) from the basidiomycete Coprinus cinereus [19].
  • A basidiomycete, Coprinus cinereus, which has many advantages for the study of meiosis, was recently reported to have a homolog of one of these, RAD51 [20].
  • Based on this finding, we screened for a meiosis-specific homolog of recA, equivalent to Lilium LIM15 or Saccharomyces DMC1, in C. cinereus, and isolated a clone containing a 1.2-kb DNA fragment from a cDNA library constructed with Coprinus poly(A)+ RNA isolated from cells undergoing meiosis [20].
  • The basidiomycete Coprinopsis cinerea (Coprinus cinereus) expresses two fruiting body-specific isolectins (CGL1 and CGL2) that belong to the family of galectins [21].
