This study investigates bidirectional interactions between fluorinated chemicals and gut microbiota using ex vivo, in vitro, and in silico methods, revealing microbial biotransformation and potential detoxification effects.

This paper characterizes two fungal polyketide synthases that produce substituted 2-quinolones and (thio)coumarins, demonstrating their potential for biocatalytic drug discovery.

This study characterizes fungal type III polyketide synthases (T3PKSs) by analyzing their genomic context and substrate specificity, and develops a machine learning model to predict their substrate preferences.

The paper identifies and expresses two functional 4-O-dimethylallyl-L-tyrosine synthases from lichen-forming fungi, revealing their substrate specificity and potential for biocatalytic applications.
