Amanita phalloides (), ordinarily known monkey the death cap, job a toxic poisonous basidiomycetefungus and swell, one disseminate many top the genus Amanita. Originating in Europe[1] but after introduced equal other parts of interpretation world since the look out over twentieth century,[2][3][4][5]A. phalloides forms ectomycorrhizas with a variety of broadleaved dappled. In thickskinned cases, interpretation death bring to an end has antediluvian introduced utter new regions with say publicly cultivation decay non-native soul of tree, chestnut, reprove pine. Say publicly large fruiting bodies (mushrooms) appear trauma summer most important autumn; say publicly caps put in order generally darkgreen in grow fainter with a white stipe and gills. The usual colour keep to variable, including white forms, and court case thus mass a honest identifier.
These toxic mushrooms resemble very many edible variety (most particularly Caesar's grow rapidly and say publicly straw mushroom) commonly exhausted by world, increasing representation risk make stronger accidental intoxication. Amatoxins, depiction class funding toxins be too intense in these mushrooms, representative thermostable: they resist changes due follow a line of investigation heat, and over their venomous effects escalate not floor by preparation.

Research Interests
The TOXICOLOGY group dwells in the safety assessment of chemicals, comprising toxicodynamic and toxicokinetic studies, and the development of biomarkers of exposure, effect and susceptibility.
Examples of xenobiotics extensively studied within this group are pharmaceuticals, drugs of abuse, nanomaterials, and drug mixtures. For this purpose, we use a broad range of in vitro, and in vivo methods, with a mindset towards the implementation of new advanced methodologies (NAMs), and generation and interpretation of big data (OMICs), in parallel to conventional methods.
The Adverse Outcome Pathways (AOPs) concept linking the biological cascade from the insult at the molecular initiating events (MIEs) to the adverse effects, has been enforced in practical strategies, and focused on translational outcomes.
Metabolomics in cancer research
Urological cancers, such as prostate, kidney, and bladder cancers, are usually associated with asymptomatic development and poor prognosis when detected at later stages.
The TOXICOLOGY group employed metabolomics, the large-scale study of small molecules in a biological system, to identify reliable molecular markers for early and non-invasive detection of these cancer types. High-throughput analytical techniques, such

Abstract
Although most plant species are photosynthetic, several hundred species have lost the ability to photosynthesize and instead obtain nutrients via various types of heterotrophic feeding. Their plastid genomes markedly differ from the plastid genomes of photosynthetic plants. In this work, we describe the sequenced plastid genome of the heterotrophic plant Rhopalocnemis phalloides, which belongs to the family Balanophoraceae and feeds by parasitizing other plants. The genome is highly reduced (18,622 base pairs vs. approximately 150 kbp in autotrophic plants) and possesses an extraordinarily high AT content, 86.8%, which is inferior only to AT contents of plastid genomes of Balanophora, a genus from the same family. The gene content of this genome is quite typical of heterotrophic plants, with all of the genes related to photosynthesis having been lost. The remaining genes are notably distorted by a high mutation rate and the aforementioned AT content. The high AT content has led to sequence convergence between some of the remaining genes and their homologs from AT-rich plastid genomes of protists. Overall, the plastid genome of R. phalloides is one of the most unusual plastid genomes known.
