Abstract
A comparative evaluation of the level of extracellular peroxidase activity and light-emission intensity of the mycelium of the luminescent basidiomycete Neonothopanus nambi in the presence of β-glucosidase was performed. The enzyme activity damages the hyphae of the fungus leading to osmotic imbalance, partial degradation of the mycelium, and release of extracellular peroxidases into the incubation medium. The presence of β-glucosidase reduces the time necessary to reach the maximum luminescence. Putative biochemical mechanisms that underlie the stimulation of reactive oxygen species formation (first and foremost, of hydrogen peroxide) in the N. nambi mycelium in the presence of β-glucosidase are proposed.
