Production of L-Asparaginase (L-ASN) from endophytic Lasiodiplodia theobromae hosted Teucrium polium in Egypt

Endophytic fungi produce important bioactive primary and secondary metabolites. Researchers used L-Asparaginase for the treatment of Acute Lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Endophytic taxon, <em>Lasiodiplodia theobromae </em>(<em>Pat</em>.) Griff. and Maubl. has been isolated fro...

description Endophytic fungi produce important bioactive primary and secondary metabolites. Researchers used L-Asparaginase for the treatment of Acute Lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Endophytic taxon, <em>Lasiodiplodia theobromae </em>(<em>Pat</em>.) Griff. and Maubl. has been isolated from <em>Teucrium polium</em> plant tissues collected from Saint Katherine Protectorate and was screened for its ability to produce L-Asparaginase qualitatively and quantitatively. The crude enzyme has been partially purified using gel-filtration Sephadex G-100 with an activity of 21.00 lMmL<sup>-1</sup> min<sup>-1</sup>. The results revealed that <em>L</em>. <em>theobromae</em> (SCUF-TP2016) represents a rich source of bioactive metabolites that can be manipulated to produce L-Asparaginase which is a desirable novel analog for chemotherapy.
