Lonafarnib synergizes with azoles against Aspergillus spp. and Exophiala spp. [PDF]
Farnesylation, which is catalyzed by farnesyltransferase, promotes membrane association of the modified protein and protein-protein interactions, and plays an important role in a number of physiological processes of pathogenic fungi, including stress response, environmental adaption and virulence.

A multi-aspect analysis of two analogous aspergillus spp. belonging to section Flavi: aspergillus flavus and aspergillus oryzae. [PDF]
AbstractMicrofungal isolates were routinely identified depending on both macro and micro morphological characteristics, sometimes, some fungal isolates appeared to be similar and such cases caused severe confusion for mycologists during the preliminary identification. During our previous studies dealing with isolation of fungi for some biotechnological

The two-component sensor kinase TcsC and its role in stress resistance of the human-pathogenic mold Aspergillus fumigatus. [PDF]
Two-component signaling systems are widespread in bacteria, but also found in fungi. In this study, we have characterized TcsC, the only Group III two-component sensor kinase of Aspergillus fumigatus. TcsC is required for growth under hyperosmotic stress,

Current Importance of Ochratoxin A–Producing Aspergillus spp.
Ochratoxin A (OA) is receiving attention worldwide because of the hazard it poses to human and animal health. OA contamination of commodities, such as cereals or pork and poultry meat, is well recognized. Nevertheless, there is an increasing number of articles reporting OA contamination in other food commodities, such as coffee, beer, wine, grape juice,

Aspergillus spp. associated with Aspergillus vine canker in Mexico
Abstract The genus Aspergillus encompasses species with high economic and social impact. Species belonging to section Nigri known as black aspergilli, have predominantly been isolated from soil and plants. Fungi associated with Aspergillus vine canker infect vigorous new shoots and canes during plant training, entering through wounds. Recently,
