AoPrdx2 Regulates Oxidative Stress, Reactive Oxygen Species, Trap Formation, and Secondary Metabolism in Arthrobotrys oligospora. [PDF]
Prdx2 is a peroxiredoxin (Prx) family protein that protects cells from attack via reactive oxygen species (ROS), and it has an important role in improving the resistance and scavenging capacity of ROS in fungi.

Pleiotropic roles of Ras GTPases in the nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora identified through multi-omics analyses [PDF]
Summary: The nematode-trapping fungi are ideal agents for controlling pathogenic nematodes. Arthrobotrys oligospora is a representative species of the same, producing traps for nematode predation. Here, three orthologous Ras GTPases (Ras2, Ras3, and Rheb)

p21-activated kinase is involved in the sporulation, pathogenicity, and stress response of Arthrobotrys oligospora under the indirect regulation of Rho GTPase-activating protein. [PDF]
The p21-GTPase-activated protein kinases (PAKs) participate in signal transduction downstream of Rho GTPases, which are regulated by Rho GTPase-activating proteins (Rho-GAP).

Cell fusion-related proteins <i>AoHam4, AoHam8 and AoPP2A</i> regulate hyphal fusion, conidiation, trap morphogenesis, and secondary metabolism in <i>Arthrobotrys oligospora</i>. [PDF]
The diverse mycelial networks of fungi are generated through polar growth, cell division, and cell fusion. Most of the genes are well characterized as crucial for cellular communication and fusion processes in filamentous fungi, but their functions and ...

Heavy trap formation by Arthrobotrys oligospora in liquid culture [PDF]
The nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora was grown in liquid culture in modified separatory funnels with vigorous air bubbling. The growth medium was a dilute soya peptone broth supplemented with a trap-inducing substance. The dipeptide l-phenylalanyl-l-valine or its constituents phenylalanine and valine were used as inducers of trap ...

Random mutagenesis analysis and identification of a novel C2H2-type transcription factor from the nematode-trapping fungus Arthrobotrys oligospora [PDF]
Arthrobotrys oligospora is a typical nematode-trapping fungus. In this study, 37 transformants of A. oligospora were obtained by REMI (restriction enzyme mediated integration) method and phenotypic properties of nine transformants were analyzed. The nine

High Predatory Capacity of a Novel Arthrobotrys oligospora Variety on the Ovine Gastrointestinal Nematode Haemonchus contortus (Rhabditomorpha: Trichostrongylidae) [PDF]
With the worldwide development of anthelmintic resistance, new alternative approaches for controlling gastrointestinal nematodes in sheep are urgently required. In this work, we identified and characterized native nematode-trapping fungi.

Amphiphysin AoRvs167-Mediated Membrane Curvature Facilitates Trap Formation, Endocytosis, and Stress Resistance in Arthrobotrys oligospora [PDF]
Bin1/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain-containing proteins mediate fundamental cellular processes, including membrane remodeling and endocytosis. Nematode-trapping (NT) fungi can differentiate to form trapping structures through highly reorganized cell ...

Deletion of a Putative GPI-Anchored Protein-Encoding Gene Aog185 Impedes the Growth and Nematode-Trapping Efficiency of Arthrobotrys oligospora by Disrupting Transmembrane Transport Homeostasis [PDF]
Nematode‐trapping fungus (NTF) is a crucial predator of nematodes, which can capture nematodes by developing specific trapping devices. However, there is limited understanding of the role and mechanism of cell surface proteins attached to the surface of mycelia or trapping cells. Here, the effects of a putative GPI‐anchored protein‐encoding gene Aog185
