Key points

  • An antifungal protein (HM-af) was purified from the culinary-medicinal mushroom Hypsizygus marmoreus
  • The results of sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry of HM-af indicated that its molecular mass was 9.5 kDa
  • The N-terminal amino acid sequence of HM-af showed homology to ribonuclease H from Clostridium thermocellum
  • HM-af showed the antifungal activity against Flammulina velutipes
