Recombinant Aflatoxin-Degrading F<sub>420</sub>H<sub>2</sub>-Dependent Reductase from <i>Mycobacterium smegmatis</i> Protects Mammalian Cells from Aflatoxin Toxicity
Aflatoxins are carcinogenic secondary metabolites of fungi that contaminate many staple crops and foods. Aflatoxin contamination is a worldwide problem, especially in developing countries, posing health hazards, e.g., causing aflatoxicosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, and even death. Biological sol...
