Dry rot treatment Dry rot treatment Dry rot treatment refers to techniques used to eliminate dry rot fungus and alleviate the damage done by the fungus to human-built wooden structures. Dry rot ("Serpula lacrymans") is considered difficult to remove, requiring drastic action. Remedial timber treatment and damp proofing companies typically recommend stripping out of building fabric beyond the visible extent of the infestation and the use of fungicide. More holistic approaches attempt to eradicate dry rot by controlling the local environment to reduce timber moisture levels and increase ventilation in order to promote drying. The first priority when treating dry rot is to
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
