About 300 actinomycetes were isolated from two forest and one sea-shore soil and tested for inhibitory effects on mycelial growth of six plant pathogenic fungi Magnaporthe grisea, Alternaria mali, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Phytophthora capsici, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cucumerinum, and Rhizoctonia solani. Among 300 actinomycetes tested, only 16 actinomycetes showed the antifungal activity against the test fungi. Isolate NH 50 was selected for production and purification of antifungal antibiotic substances. Actinomycete isolate NH 50 displayed the broad antifungal spectra against 11 plant pathogenic fungi. To identify actinomycete isolate NH 50, cultural characteristics on various agar media, diaminopimelic acid type, and morphological characteristics by scanning electron microscopy were examined. As a result, actinomycete isolate NH 50 was classified as a rare actinomycete that had LL-DAP type and did not produce spores. After incubation of isolate NH 50 in yeast extract-malt extract-dextrose broth, antifungal compound NH-B1 that inhibited mycelial growth of some plant pathogenic fungi was purified from the methanol eluates of XAD-16 resins by a series of purification procedures, i.e., silica gel flash chromatography, C18 flash chromatography, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, silica gel medium pressure liquid chromatography (MPLC), C18 MPLC, and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). UV spectrum and 1HNMR spectrum of antifungal compound NH-B1 dissolved in methanol were examined. The antibiotic NH-B1 showed the major peaks at 230 and 271.2nm. Based on the data of 1H-NMR spectrum, NH-B1 was confirmed to be an extremely complex polymer of sugars called polysaccharides. The antibiotic NH-B1 showed strong antifungal activity against Alternaria solani and Cercospora kikuchi, but weak activity against M. grisea.

거저리 유충의 혈림프로부터 항진균성 단백질을 $C_{18}$ open column chromatography로 부분 정제하여 3종류의 효모형 진균류와 4종류의 사상형 진균류에 대한 항진균 활성을 측정하였다. 항균단백질은 대부분의 균류에 대해 생장억제의 활성을 보여주었으며 Saccharomyces cerevisiae와 Candida albicans에 대해서는 미약하나마 치사효과가 관찰되었다. 항진균단백질을 처리하였을 때, 달걀형의 효모형 균체모양이 둥글고 크게 변하였다. 사상형 진균류에 대해서는 생장억제 효과와 함께 균사체의 정단 부위가 심하게 변화한 형태가 관찰되었다. 이러한 결과로부터 거저리 유충의 혈림프에는 비교적 넓은 범위의 진균류에 대해 치사 또는 생장억제 기능을 가진 항진균 단백질들이 존재함을 알 수 있었다.

Forty-three (n = 43) endophytic fungi with different morphologic characteristics were from a medicinal plant Sceletium tortuosum, were utilized to investigate their antifungal effectiveness against pathogenic fungi. All fungal isolates exhibited antifungal activity against one or more pathogens in the dual culture test whereas only 33 fungal culture filtrates (77%) showed decent antifungal effect. Fusaria and Aspergillus were the dominate genus that displayed significant antifungal activity. Isolates GG02, GG09, ND15, and ND17 showed the broadest spectrum of antifungal activity. Furthermore, culture filtrate of Fusarium sp. DR08 exhibited a broad range of antifungal activity against all the pathogens. The results suggest endophytic fungi isolated from medicinal plant might be a source of novel bioactive molecules. To the best our knowledge, this is the first report on endophytic fungi isolated from native kougoed exhibiting antifungal activity against plant fungal pathogens.

B. amyloliquefaciens IUB158-03균주에서 정제된 항진균물질은 극성인 용매에 잘 용해되고, pH 6.0~10.0와 $-70{\sim}121^{\circ}C$에서와 같이 넓은 범위의 온도 및 pH에서 안정성을 보였다. 항진균물질의 FAB-MS, UV 흡수 스펙트럼, 아미노산 조성 등을 분석한 결과 분자량은 1,042 이었고, TLC를 이용하여 분석한 결과 ninhydrin solution에서 보라색으로 발색되었다. UV 스펙트럼은 220 nm, 277 nm에서 ${\lambda}max$를 보였으며, $Asn_3$, $Gln_2$, $Ser_1$ $Gly_1$, $Tyr_1$의 아미노산 조성을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 $^1H$-NMR spectrum, $^1H$-COSY, HMQC 을 분석한 결과 iturin A계에 속하는 물질로 확인되었다. NIH3T3 섬유아세포에 대해 항진균물질이 세포독성을 나타내지 않는 것은 물론 마우스에 항진균물질을 경구투여하여 장기 내의 변화와 백혈구 수, 생체내의 생리적인 기능면에서 정상 마우스와 차이를 보이지 않았으므로 생체독성이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구를 통하여 B. amyloliquefaciens IUB158-03에서 분리된 항진균물질이 앞으로 고추탄저병의 생물적 방제제로 이용될 수 있는 잠재성을 갖고 있는 것으로 사료된다.

Acyl CoA synthetase inhibitor, was purified from the culture broth of a Bacillus sp. B-6, which had been isolated from soil, by chloroform extract, silica gel column chro matography and preparative TLC. The purified acyl CoA synthetase inhibitor showed higher Antifungal activity against C. al-bicans (MIC: 8${\mu}$g/ml). Though the analysis of UV spectrum, melting point, IR spectrum, Mass-spectrum, $^1H$-NMR and $^{13}C$-NMR spectrum, the inhibitor could be identified as phenazine-l-carboxylic acid.

During the screening of antifungal antibiotics from microbial metabolites, we selected Pseudomonas aeruginosa KGM-100 showing powerful antagonistic activity against various phytopathogenic fungi. Antibiotics KGM-100A and KGM-100B were purified from the culture broth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa KGM-100 by diaion HP-20 column chromatography, ethyl acetate extraction, silica gel column chromatography, preparative TLC and recrystallization. KGM-100A which was recrystallized in MeOH showed antimicrobial activities against a broad spectrum of fungi and bacteria. Physico-chemical properties of KGM-100A were determined and identified to be phenazine-l-carboxylic acid by UV, IR, $^{1}$H-NMR, $^{13}$C-NMR, mass spectrum, and elemental analyses.

The yeast Williopsis californica was shown to secrete a unique broad-spectrum killer toxin (Wicaltin) with antifungal activity against 14 yeast genera, including yeast-like and mycelial forms of the human pathogens Candida albicans and Sporothrix schenkii. Agar diffusion bioassays indicated that its activity was more pronounced than the antifungal potential of frequently used antimycotics; 0.07 pmol Wicaltin showed the same toxicity as 0.2 pmol miconazole and 29 pmol clotrimazole. Since the toxin's primary target would appear to be the yeast cell wall, Wicaltin may be attractive in combatting clinically relevant yeast and fungal infections.

Background: Posaconazole is a broad-spectrum triazole antifungal agent and the most recommended prophylactic antifungal agent for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) undergoing induction chemotherapy. In this study, we evaluated the status and effectiveness of posaconazole as a prophylactic antifungal agent in pediatric patients receiving induction chemotherapy for AML. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the electronic medical records of 36 pediatric patients with AML (between January 2013 and September 2017) at the Yonsei University Health System. Invasive fungal disease (IFD) was assessed as the primary endpoint of prophylactic antifungal effect. The secondary endpoints were incidence of fever, persistent fever despite the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics for 72 h, alteration of antifungal agent, intensive care unit admission, and death within 100 days. Results: Among the 36 patients, 18 patients used posaconazole, 12 were treated with suspension formula, and 6 of them were treated with tablets. Eighteen patients did not use antifungal agents prophylactically. The mean number of days of posaconazole administration was $26.8{\pm}16days$. IFD occurred in 2/18 (11.1%) patients in the no prophylaxis group and in 1/18 (5.6%) patients in the posaconazole group (p=0.49). Conclusion: Posaconazole is expected to be useful for the prevention of IFD in pediatric patients with AML undergoing induction chemotherapy. Prospective studies of the effectiveness of posaconazole prophylaxis should be conducted in more pediatric patients in the future.

Antifungal metabolites were isolated from a culture of Pseudomonas aurantiaca IB5-10. Chemical structures of the metabolites were elucidated as phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (PCA; 1), 2-hydroxyphenazine (2-OH-PHZ; 2), and cyclo-(L-Pro-L-Val; 3), respectively, based on spectroscopic methods. Among them, 3 was isolated for the first time from this strain. The antifungal activities of 1-3 were evaluated against a variety of plant pathogens. To the best of our knowledge, the antifungal activities of 3 against plant fungal pathogens have been evaluated for the first time in this work. PCA (1) showed the most potent antifungal activities against Phytophthora capsici, Rhizoctonia solani AG-1(IA), and Pythium ultimum with MICs (${\mu}g/ml$) of less than 1.0, 1.3, and 2.0, respectively. On the other hand, 2-OH-PHZ (2) showed potent antifungal activity against R. solani AG-1(IA) with the MIC (${\mu}g/ml$) of 2.0, whereas it showed moderate antifungal activity against P. ultimum with the MIC (${\mu}g/ml$) of 50.0. In addition, 3 showed antifungal activity against only R. solani AG-1(IA).
