mBio, 2021 Synthesis and turnover of the bacterial cell wall must be tightly coordinated to avoid structural integrity failure and cell death. Details of this coordination are poorly understood, particularly if and how cell wall turnover enzymes are required for ...

Regulation of Cell Wall Biogenesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: The Cell Wall Integrity Signaling Pathway [PDF]
Genetics, 2011 Abstract The yeast cell wall is a strong, but elastic, structure that is essential not only for the maintenance of cell shape and integrity, but also for progression through the cell cycle. During growth and morphogenesis, and in response to environmental challenges, the cell wall is remodeled in a highly regulated and polarized manner ...

Participation of Candida albicans transcription factor RLM1 in cell wall biogenesis and virulence. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Candida albicans cell wall is important for growth and interaction with the environment. RLM1 is one of the putative transcription factors involved in the cell wall integrity pathway, which plays an important role in the maintenance of the cell wall ...

Hechtian Strands Transmit Cell Wall Integrity Signals in Plant Cells
Plants, 2020 Hechtian strands are thread-like structures in plasmolyzed plant cells that connect the cell wall to the plasma membrane. Although these strands were first observed more than 100 years ago, their physiological roles are largely unknown. Here, we used intracellular laser microdissection to examine the effects of disrupting Hechtian strands on ...

Bacterial Cell Wall Quality Control during Environmental Stress
mBio, 2020 Single-celled organisms must adapt their physiology to persist and propagate across a wide range of environmental conditions. The growth and division of bacterial cells depend on continuous synthesis of an essential extracellular barrier: the ...

Analysis of the cell wall integrity pathway of Ashbya gossypii
Microbiological Research, 2013 Fungal cells are exposed to rapidly changing environmental conditions, in particular with regard to the osmotic potential. This requires constant remodeling of the cell wall and, therefore, the cell wall integrity (CWI) MAP-kinase pathway plays a major role in shaping the fungal cell wall to protect from adverse external stresses.

Cell Wall-linked Cryptococcal Phospholipase B1 Is a Source of Secreted Enzyme and a Determinant of Cell Wall Integrity [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2007 Phospholipase B (Plb1) is secreted by pathogenic fungi and is a proven virulence determinant in Cryptococcus neoformans. Cell-associated Plb1 is presumptively involved in fungal membrane biogenesis and remodelling. We have also identified it in cryptococcal cell walls.

Cell Wall Integrity and Its Industrial Applications in Filamentous Fungi
Journal of Fungi, 2022 Signal transduction pathways regulating cell wall integrity (CWI) in filamentous fungi have been studied taking into account findings in budding yeast, and much knowledge has been accumulated in recent years. Given that the cell wall is essential for viability in fungi, its architecture has been analyzed in relation to virulence, especially in ...

Cdc48 and cofactors Npl4-Ufd1 are important for G1 progression during heat stress by maintaining cell wall integrity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The ubiquitin-selective chaperone Cdc48, a member of the AAA (ATPase Associated with various cellular Activities) ATPase superfamily, is involved in many processes, including endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD), ubiquitin- and proteasome ...
