We list all the mushrooms in Scum and how valuable they are as well as which you should avoid and all of their effects.

How alpha-amanitin kills isn’t fully understood. A team of researchers in China and Australia used the gene editor CRISPR/Cas9 to determine which human genes the toxin triggers to cause cell ...

The mushrooms’ most fatal component is the toxin alpha-amanitin. It can cause vomiting, seizures, extreme liver damage and death, writes Nature News’ Saima Sidik.

"We found the STT3B protein and its biological pathway is critical for toxin cytotoxicity," Wang said. STT3B is involved in the production of N-glycans, which are key for making sure proteins ...

Scientists have found a possible antidote for the deadly mushroom’s toxin. Growing up to 15 centimetres high, ... Interrupting this pathway somehow blocks α-amanitin from entering cells, ...

Several classes of toxins make up this poisonous mushroom, but there’s one in particular that makes the death cap lethal: α-amanitin. It’s also known as alpha-amanitin and falls into a ...

A mushroom called the death cap — Amanita phalloides — and dozens of related species containing the same toxin, alpha amanitin, account for the vast majority of mushroom-poisoning deaths.

Scientists have identified a potential antidote to the poisonous mushroom, the death cap. Using CRISPR, a team found that a chemical already approved by the FDA can neutralize the toxin and save ...
