Genomic Analysis and Antimicrobial Components of M7, an Aspergillus terreus Strain Derived from the South China Sea.

ABSTRACT: As a typical filamentous fungus, Aspergillus species are highly adaptive to diverse ecological habitats, represented by their occurrence in both terrestrial and marine environments; this could plausibly be ascribed to their preeminent biological diversity and metabolic variability. In this context, marine-derived Aspergillus fungi have recently attracted great interest as a promising potential source of biologically active compounds. The present study depicts the genomic and chemical profiles of M7, a strain of Aspergillus terreus isolated from mussels in the South China Sea; the crude extracts of its soybean fermentation exhibit potent growth-inhibitory properties against A. baumannii and P. aeruginosa. Subsequently, functional genomics analysis based on
