Fibroporia vaillantii Fibroporia vaillantii Fibroporia vaillantii, also known as mine fungus, white pore fungus, Antrodia vaillantii, Polyporus vaillantii, and various other names is a wood-decaying fungus which can occur on timber in humid conditions. The fungus causes brown rot of pine wood, in which cellulose and hemicellulose are broken down, leading to brown discoloration and shrinkage of wood. It has been/is sometimes considered to be a fungus causing dry rot, although that term is more often used for wood decay due to a different fungus, "Serpula lacrymans". The fungus grows on wood from coniferous trees, such as pine wood, under damp conditions,
Atromentin 4-HPP to observe the formation of atromentin. This was followed by characterization of the enzyme GreA in "Suillus grevillei", six (InvA1-6, of which InvA1, 2 and 5 were functional) in "Paxillus involutus", and NPS3 from "Serpula lacrymans". In addition, there is another adjacent and conserved gene encoding for an alcohol dehydrogenase/oxidoreductase whose function is unclear. In most cases the clustered biosynthetic genes are found orthologous in basidiomycetes. A common promoter motif was found shared between the atromentin synthetase and aminotransferase of 23 different atromentin-producing basidiomycetes that was in almost all cases absent from the alcohol dehydrogenase, indicating co-regulation of the
