Beauveria bassiana Fungi European com borer (China)... 

Fungi are broadly associated microbial pathogens of insects. Beauveria bassiana is extensively used as a microbial insecticide in China and Eastern Europe, especially for the control of the com borer Ostrinia spp. However, fungi have had no significant development as microbial insecticides in the United States.

Highly active super strains, such as Cunninghamella sp., Beauveria bassiana and Streptomyces rimosus, are particularly useful here, as they tend to produce multiple metabolites thus, the majority of the desired metabolites can be obtained with a minimal number of incubations.

Transformation of the fluoroquinolones sarafloxacin to IV-acety I sarafloxaci n and d e s e t h v I e n e - N - ace tv I s a r afl o x ac i n by M. ramannianus [37] and flumequine to two diasteroisomers of 7-hydroxyflumequine and 7-oxoflumequine by C. elegans [38] was also reported. Meanwhile, the quinolone-like antibiotic cinoxacin produced 1-ethyl-l,4-dihydro-3-(hydroxymethyl)[l,3]dioxolo[4,5-g]cinnolin-4-one and 1 -ethyl-1,4-dihydro-6,7-dihydroxy-3-(hydroxymethyl)cinnolin-4-one when transformed by Beauveria bassiana [39].

For instance, styrene oxide was resolved by whole cells of Aspergillus niger and Beauveria bassiana via two different pathways showing matching enantio- and regioselectivities with excellent results (Scheme 8). Combination of the two biocatalysts employing a deracemization process in a single reactor led to R) phenylethane-l,2-diol as the sole product in 98% ee and 85% isolated yield [58].

Beauveriolides I (19) and III (20), two fungal (Beauveria Spp) metabolites, have been found to be specific inhibitors of lipid droplet formation in mouse macrophages. It has been recently observed that the metabolisms of A[3 proteins and cholesterol esters are closely linked. One of the...
