rodletless mutants of Aspergillus fumigatus [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1994
Conidia of Aspergillus fumigatus adhere in vitro to host proteins and cells via the outer cell wall layer. The rodA gene of A. fumigatus was cloned by homology with the rodA gene of Aspergillus nidulans, which is involved in the structure of the rodlets characteristic of the surface layer. The A.

Proteomic Analysis of Humoral Immune Components in Bronchoalveolar Lavage of Patients Infected or Colonized by Aspergillus fumigatus

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
Humoral immune components have been individually studied in the context of interaction of host with Aspergillus fumigatus, a major airborne fungal pathogen. However, a global view of the multitude and complex nature of humoral immune components is needed

Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillosis in 2019 [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2019
Aspergillus fumigatus is a saprotrophic fungus; its primary habitat is the soil. In its ecological niche, the fungus has learned how to adapt and proliferate in hostile environments. This capacity has helped the fungus to resist and survive against human host defenses and, further, to be responsible for one of the most ...

Microsatellite typing of avian clinical and environmental isolates of Aspergillus fumigatus [PDF]

, 2011
Aspergillosis is one of the most common causes of death in captive birds. Aspergillosis in birds is mainly caused by Aspergillus fumigatus, a ubiquitous and opportunistic saprophyte.

The Genome of a Thermo Tolerant, Pathogenic Albino Aspergillus fumigatus

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Biotechnologists are interested in thermo tolerant fungi to manufacture enzymes active and stable at high temperatures, because they provide improved catalytic efficiency, strengthen enzyme substrate interactions, accelerate substrate enzyme conversion ...

Species-Specific Immunological Reactivities Depend on the Cell-Wall Organization of the Two Aspergillus, Aspergillus fumigatus and A. flavus

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Although belong to the same genus, Aspergillus fumigatus is primarily involved in invasive pulmonary infection, whereas Aspergillus flavus is a common cause of superficial infection.

Determining whether estimated spore release rates for Aspergillus fumigatus are compatible with their measured growth rates in composting systems [PDF]

, 2008
The composting process like other waste management activities has the potential to generate large concentrations of bioaerosols which can be widely dispersed into the surrounding environment.

Culturing and Mating of Aspergillus fumigatus [PDF]

Current Protocols in Microbiology, 2019
AbstractAspergillus fumigatus is an opportunistic human fungal pathogen, capable of causing invasive aspergillosis in patients with compromised immune systems. The fungus was long considered a purely asexual organism. However, a sexual cycle was reported in 2009, with methods described to induce mating under laboratory conditions.
