ABSTRACT Cryparin is a cell-surface-associated hydrophobin of the filamentous ascomycete Cryphonectria parasitica. This protein contains a signal peptide that directs it to the vesicle-mediated secretory pathway. We detected a glycosylated form of cryparin in a secretory vesicle fraction, but secreted forms of this protein are not glycosylated. This glycosylation occurred in the proprotein region, which is cleaved during maturation by a Kex2-like serine protease, leaving a mature form of cryparin that could be isolated from both the cell wall and culture medium. Pulse-chase labeling experiments showed that cryparin was secreted through the cell wall, without being bound, into the culture medium. The secreted protein then binds to the cell walls ofC. parasitica, where it remains. Binding of cryparin to the cell wall occurred in submerged culture, presumably because of the lectin-like properties unique to this hydrophobin. Thus, the binding of this hydrophobin to the cell wall is different from that of other hydrophobins which are reported to require a hydrophobic-hydrophilic interface for assembly.

For initiation of seed germination and protocorm growth in Vanda tessellata (Roxb.) Hook. ex G. Don different media, namely Knudson’s C basal medium, modified Knudson’s C basal medium, Murashige and Skoog basal medium, Vacin and Went basal medium and Lindeman basal medium either alone or supplemented with vitamin or 0.1% peptone (w/v) were used. Vitamin mixture was consisted of nicotinic acid, pyridoxine and thiamine HCl at 1 : 1 : 10, respectively. For the initiation of germination, all the treatments exhibited promising results without showing significant variation. But the rate of survival of the germinated seedlings was remarkably low in all the basal media. Maximum survival rate of germinated seedlings was recorded in MS + 0.1% peptone. Necrosis of protocorms was a common phenomenon in all the treatments and 100% necrosis was recorded in LM basal medium and LM + vitamin. Addition of vitamin mixture and peptone in the basal media increased the rate of survival as well as differentiation of the germinated protocorms. Maximum rooted plantlets were recorded in VW + 0.1% peptone Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 30(2): 285-295, 2020 (December)

Mycelia of Streptomyces griseus strain No. 52-1 from a 2-day submerged culture pretreated with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) were digested with lysozyme. The sensitivity of younger vegetative hyphae to lysozyme increased while that of older reproductive hyphae remained almost unchanged.EDTA or borate pretreatment increased resistance to ultrasonic disintegration in the case of 96-h mycelia from submerged culture. EDTA was most effective at a concentration of 10−5 M.The enhanced resistance to ultrasonic disintegration can be reversed by Mg2+ and Al3+ in a concentration of 10−5 M, while Ca2+ ions are ineffective.These results suggest the existence of a polyvalent-ion-dependent layer in the cell wall of streptomycetes. Such a layer would be exterior to the mucopeptide layer. Its thickness changes during the life cycle and it is most prominent in younger vegetative hyphae.

Metarhizium robertsii is an emerging model entomopathogenic fungus for developing biopesticides; therefore, a comprehensive understanding of its conidiation is very important for its application. In this study, we revealed that the transcription factor Mr-AbaA is involved in the control of aerial conidiation and blastospore separation in submerged culture.
