Abstract

An antifungal protein was isolated from the mushroom Tricholoma giganteum var. golden blessings. The protocol included ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, affinity chromatography on Affi-gel blue gel, ion exchange chromatography on CM-cellulose, and gel filtration by fast protein liquid chromatography on Superdex 75. The antifungal protein, designated trichogin, was unadsorbed on DEAE-cellulose but was adsorbed on Affi-gel blue gel and CM-cellulose. It exhibited antifungal activity against Fusarium oxysporum, Mycosphaerella arachidicola and Physalospora piricola. Trichogin inhibited HIV-1 reverse transcriptase with an IC50 of 83 nM.
