[The physiological and biochemical characteristics of Stachybotrys chartarum 13959a in relation to the biosynthesis of stachybotryotoxins].
The activities of key enzymes of main metabolic pathways: glycolysis, pentose phosphate pathway and tricarboxylic acid cycle, have been studied in dynamics of cultivation of toxin-producing fungus Stachybotrys chartarum 13959a. Aldolase activity increased while that of succinate dehydrogenase decreased during the fungal growth. The activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase was high during the first days of cultivation and then it decreased. The maximum yield of acetaldehyde has been observed during the first stages of cultivation and it has not been connected with quantitative yield of pyruvate.
