Biosynthetic ability of diverse basidiomycetous yeast strains to produce the natural antioxidant ergothioneine

Abstract Sixteen strains of basidiomycetous yeasts were evaluated for their capability to produce ergothioneine (EGT), an amino acid derivative with strong antioxidant activity. The cells were cultured in either two synthetic media or yeast mold (YM) medium for 72 h, after which cytosolic constituen...
