Cover Feature: Characterization of the Cubamyces Menziesii Terpenome (ChemBioChem 15/2025)
Von Wiley-VCH zur Verfügung gestellt
The cover illustrates the vast diversity of sesquiterpenes produced by the fungus Cubamyces menziesii. A bioinformatics analysis revealed that this polyploid organism carries a surprisingly high number of genes encoding sesquiterpene cyclases. Using an in vitro approach, the authors aim to decipher the terpenome of this fungus and explore the wide range of applications of these compounds in fields such as the flavor industry, food, and medicine. More information can be found in the article 10.1002/cbic.202401083 by Katia Duquesne, Marie-Noelle Rosso, Gilles Iacazio, and co-workers.
