| Abstract | Fusarium Tri4 encodes a key cytochrome P450 monooxygenase for hydroxylation of trichodiene early in the biosynthesis of trichothecenes. In this study, we established a system for screening for inhibitors of trichothecene biosynthesis using transgenic Saccharomyces cerevisiae expressing Tri4. For easy evaluation of the TRI4 activity, trichodiene-11-one was used as a substrate and the formation of 2α-hydroxytrichodiene-11-one was monitored by HPLC. Using this system, TRI4 proved to be inhibited by various flavones and furanocoumarins. We also found that a catechin-containing commercial beverage product, Catechin Supplement 300 (CS300), inhibited TRI4 activity, at a concentration which did not significantly affect the growth of the transgenic yeast. At an early stage of culture, both flavone and CS300 exhibited a toxin-inhibitory activity against Fusarium graminearum. However, inhibition of trichothecene production was not observed with longer incubation periods at minimum concentrations necessary to inhibit >50% of the TRI4 activity, presumably due to the metabolism by the fungus. The results suggest that this yeast screening system with TRI4 is useful for the rapid identification of lead compounds for the design of trichothecene biosynthesis inhibitors that are resistant to modification by the fungus. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
