CaHMX1 is required for utilization of these exogenous substrates, indicating that C. albicans heme oxygenase confers a nutritional advantage for growth in mammalian hosts.
The materials grown on cellulose contained more chitin and showed higher Young's modulus and lower elongation than those grown on dextrose-containing substrates, indicating that the mycelium materials get stiffer when their feeding substrate is harder to digest.
The recombinant clone obtained displayed high activity on fatty acid-derivative substrates, indicating that one of the lipolytic enzymes of the strain had been cloned.
Furthermore, the PEDOT PSS layers induced physical gripping of the CNTs to enable them to adhere better to the underlying PET substrates, indicating that the hybrid electrodes were more desirable in flexibility than were the CNTs.
Long chain 1-alkanols, alkane-1,2-diols, 2-amino-1-alkanol or 1-amino-2-alkanol and short chain 2-amino-1,3-alkanediols were very poor substrates, indicating that the kinase is recognizing the chain length and the position of the amino and secondary hydroxy group.
Although fractionation of lysate does not affect its proteolytic activity toward substrates with free NH2-termini, it completely abolishes the activity toward the blocked substrates, indicating that an important component of the system was either removed or inactivated during fractionation.
