Molecular Analysis of the Genes Responsible for Catalysing Intracellular Steps of Aurofusarin Biosynthesis in Fusarium culmorum

Abstract

: Fusarium culmorum produces polyketide-structured aurofusarin and its precursor metabolites. Aurofusarin biosynthetic pathway is catalysed by the products of eleven genes located in gene cluster. In this study, the effects of the expression levels of Pks12 , Gip6 , and
