Gymnascella dankaliensis is a moderate to slow growing fungus commonly found in the soil of warmer climates. [1] [2] It is characterized by round yellow, orange or red-brown ascospores encircled by undifferentiated filaments. [1] They have been found in ear, nail and skin infections. [2] Their metabolites have been isolated and shown to have cytotoxic and anti-tumor properties . [3] [4]
Colonies vary greatly in colour, texture and growth rate. Colonies first appear white, then turn a pale yellow or olive and as they mature become yellow-brown to orange brown. [5] The texture can be either cottony, fine, knotted or wispy. [2] Growth rate of colonies varies from moderately slow to rapid. [2] [5]
Gymnascella dankaliensis has irregular, indistinct filaments.
Gymnascella dankaliensis has been reported in the soil of climates and the marine sponge Halichondria japonica. [2] [6]
Since the late 1990s, multiple cytotoxic compounds have been isolated from Gymnascella dankaliensis such as:
