Isolation and Identification of Rumen Fungus and Its Produced Conjugated Linoleic Acid
The aim of this study was to isolate and identify men fungus which produces conjugated linoleic acid. IS-13 fungus hydrogenated conjugated linoleic acid and trans-11 vaccenic acid within 12 hr after addition of linoleic acid. The homology of IS-13 rumen fungus was compared with internal transcribed spacer 1 region (ITS1)sequences of twenty three men fungi. The length of ITS1 region of IS-13 isolate was 218 bp. IS-13 isolate has the most similar sequence (98% matched) with Orpinomyces species according to maximum-likehood and distance matrix results. The result supported that IS-13 isolate belonged to Orpinomyces genus.
The mammalian leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains (LRIG) gene family consists of three different members, LRIG1, LRIG2, and LRIG3. These genes are expressed in all human and mouse ...
