“…Moreover, there are very few studies on the role of lower fungi, zygomycetes, in lignin degradation. Among them, an indigenous litter-dwelling fungus Mucor circinelloides GL1 is reported as a promising laccase producer [ 35 ].…”

“…Serine and aspartate proteases (SAPs) produce proteolytic activities aid in the colonization and penetration of tissues ( Schwartze et al, 2014 ; Mandujano-González et al, 2016 ). In vitro studies show the presence of polygalacturonases, amylases, proteases, lipases, and laccases but their role as virulence factors was not confirmed by animal models yet ( Alves et al, 2002 ; Geethanjali et al, 2020 ). Although, the proteases may obviously contribute to mucormycosis-induced tissue damage.…”

Fungal diseases were underestimated for many years. And the global burden of fungal infections is substantial and has increased in recent years. Invasive fungal infections have been linked to several risk factors in humans which basically depend on the individual homeostasis of the patients. However, many fungi can infect even apparently healthy people. Knowledge of these pathogens is critical in reducing or stopping morbidity and/or mortality statistics due to fungal pathogens. Successful therapeutic strategies rely on rapid diagnosis of the causative fungal agent and the underlying disease. However, the terminology of the diseases was updated to existing phylogenetic classifications and led to confusion in the definition of mucormycosis, conidiobolomycosis, and basidiobolomycosis, which were previously grouped under the now-uncommon term zygomycosis. Therefore, the ecological, taxonomic, clinical, and diagnostic differences are addressed to optimize the understanding and definition of these diseases. The term “coenocytic hyphomycosis” is proposed to summarize all fungal infections caused by Mucorales and species of Basidiobolus and Conidiobolus.

“…According to Geethanjali et al, (2020) and Marques et al, (2020) the species Mucor circinelloides, of the phylum Mucoromycota, order Mucorales, presents a high biotechnological potential in the production of biomolecules of industrial interest, as well as biosurfactant. In this sense, the research proposed to study the performance of biosurfactant production through the filamentous fungus Mucor circinelloides UCP 0017 using alternative substrates (MARQUES et al, 2020;RADHA et al, 2020).…”

Surfactants are molecules with amphipathic structures, that is, one polar extreme (hydrophilic) and the other nonpolar (hydrophobic), possessing a high capacity to reduce surface tension, emulsification production and wetting (PELE et al., 2019; BIONE, 2019). Its origin can be chemical usually derived from petroleum, being compounds that easily harm the environment making it difficult to remove it (BIONE, 2019; GAYATHIRI et al., 2022). As they can also be natural, through microorganisms such as bacteria, filamentous fungi and yeasts or are biodegradable and of low toxicity, not harming the environment or human health. (RULLI et al., 2019; CÂNDIDO et al., 2022). Therefore, the present study aims to seek the optimization of the production of biosurfactant becoming a more advantageous alternative because they use renewable substrates in their composition, and because their "green" properties do not harm the environment, besides being biodegradable, thus improving their cost-benefit, aiming at new opportunities for applications in the food, agricultural, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries (MARQUES et al., 2020; GAYATHIRI et al., 2022; MULLIGAN, 2023).The main responsible for the production of biosurfactants and bioemulsifiers are bacteria, followed by yeasts and finally filamentous fungi because they have a potential for the production of secondary metabolites and a high value of biomass, however, studies with filamentous fungi are little explored (SAŁEK & EUSTON, 2019; DERGUINE-MECHERI; KEBBOUCHE-GANA; DJENANE, 2021). According to Geethanjali et al., (2020) and Marques et al., (2020) the species Mucor circinelloides, of the phylum Mucoromycota, order Mucorales, presents a high biotechnological potential in the production of biomolecules of industrial interest, as well as biosurfactant. In this sense, the research proposed to study the performance of biosurfactant production through the filamentous fungus Mucor circinelloides UCP 0017 using alternative substrates (MARQUES et al., 2020; RADHA et al., 2020).
