Department of biochemistry and microbiology focus on basic research in areas of retroviral molecular biology, proteomics, plant physiology and molecular genetics, enzymology, environmental microbiology, food microbiology and bioanalytical methods. These activities create a platform for applied research aimed at developing modern therapeutic approaches, bioremediation of inorganic and organic pollutants, monitoring food safety and quality (the department also operates accredited Testing Laboratory of the Institute of Biochemistry and Microbiology) or plant-pathogen interaction. Research in our department is in many cases interdisciplinary and, in addition to close professional cooperation between the individual laboratories of the department, it would be unthinkable without cooperation with a number of national and foreign groups within the framework of joint research programs and projects. Currently, we are working on projects supported by the Czech Science Foundation, Technology Agency of the Czech Republic, Ministry of Agriculture of the Czech Republic, Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Czech Republic and the Ministry of Education and Sports.

   Our laboratory group is dedicated to the exploration of all aspects related to fungal genetics, ranging from the investigation of unknown genes in yeast mutant models, to the study of gene expression in fungal mycelia, and even the production of natural secondary metabolites in fungi. To achieve these objectives, we employ a broad spectrum of bioinformatic and molecular biology laboratory techniques, including polymerase chain reaction, blue-white screening, cDNA library construction, Genome Walking, cloning of unidentified genes into yeast mutants, and the isolation of proteins through metal-affinity methods. Furthermore, we collaborate closely with other scientific groups at the University of Chemistry and Technology Prague (VŠCHT Praha) and the Czech Academy of Sciences (AV ČR).

Genes Associated with Metal Accumulation

The ability of fungi to accumulate significant amounts of metal elements in their fruiting bodies has been recognized for several decades. However, the precise mechanism behind this intriguing phenomenon remains unknown. In the Fungal Genetics Laboratory, we are dedicated to the identification and characterization of genes responsible for the accumulation of metal elements (Ag, Cd, Cu, Zn, and others) in the fruiting bodies of saprotrophic and mycorrhizal fungi. Our research also includes the cultivation of fungal cultures, comprising over twenty strains isolated from hyperaccumulating genera such as Amanita, Hebeloma, Agaricus, and others. This allows us to study both in vitro and in vivo scenarios, including the use of fluorescence microscopy.


Arsenic Transformation in Fungi

Arsenic is a highly toxic and carcinogenic metalloid that exists in both inorganic and organic forms in the environment, with inorganic forms of arsenic being more toxic to organisms than their organic counterparts. The phenomenon of arsenic accumulation and the formation of arsenic compounds in the fruiting bodies of fungi has previously been studied by our partner institution in Graz, Austria. It was discovered that fungal fruiting bodies contain diverse inorganic and organic forms of arsenic, some of which are yet unidentified. Our goal is to identify these unknown compounds and the metabolic pathways responsible for their formation and transformation. In pursuit of this and other research projects, we collaborate with Associate Professor Antonín Kaňa from the Institute of Analytical Chemistry


Identification of Bacterial Communities in Fungal Fruiting Bodies and The Mycosphere

While our primary focus lies in the realm of metals within fungal fruiting bodies and the associated genes and proteins, the question of comprehensively understanding the ‘absurd’ hyperaccumulation of metals in these structures has led us to investigate microbial communities, or microbiomes, using next-generation sequencing methods. We investigate whether bacterial communities residing in close proximity to fruiting bodies, or within mycelium, differ from communities inhabiting the same location but without direct contact with the fungus.


Drug Metabolism Testing with Filamentous Fungus Cunninghamella elegans

Filamentous fungus Cunninghamella elegans is considered a breakthrough in metabolism testing of various toxic compounds, including drugs, as it possesses an enzyme repertoire similar to that of animal livers. As such, it can be employed not only for basic research to predict metabolites of new synthetic drugs but also for the production of bioactive compounds. We collaborate with organic chemists and chemical analysts from the BAFA laboratory, and together with Associate Professor Michal Kohout, we investigate whether chiral compounds undergo chiral metabolism within the fungus.
