Abstract

The Volvariella volvacea or commonly known as the straw mushroom is one of the nutrient-rich mushrooms. V. volvacea mushroom collected from Sedayu, Yogyakarta, Indonesia was analyzed for its protein, carbohydrate, and glycoprotein contents. The proteins isolated from the cold water extract of V. volvacea were identified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Results showed that the cold water extract of V. volvacea contained moderate amounts of proteins and carbohydrates, and was rich in glycoproteins. A pore-forming cardiotoxic protein, Volvatoxin A2, was identified in the V. volvacea; however, the involvement of this toxin as the causative agent in poisoning from V. volvacea consumption remains to be elucidated. © 2022 Malaysian Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology.
