Impact of Fungal MAPK Pathway Targets on the Cell Wall

Journal of Fungi, 2018
The fungal cell wall is an extracellular organelle that provides structure and protection to cells. The cell wall also influences the interactions of cells with each other and surfaces.

Revolutionary Times in Our Understanding of Cell Wall Biosynthesis and Remodeling in the Grasses [PDF]

Plant Physiology, 2009
A major part of the daily caloric intake of human societies around the world is derived from a diverse range of foods prepared from members of the grass family, including wheat ( Triticum aestivum ), rice ( Oryza sativa ), sorghum ( Sorghum bicolor ), the millets ( Panicum miliaceum and ...

Analyzing the complex machinery of cell wall biosynthesis [PDF]

, 2009
The plant cell wall polymers make up most of the plant biomass and provide the raw material for many economically important products including food, feed, bio-materials, chemicals, textiles, and biofuel.

CONSTRUCTIVE TISSUE REMODELING BY EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX BIOSCAFFOLDS WITHIN THE AGING SKELETAL MUSCLE MICROENVIRONMENT [PDF]

, 2013
Adult mammalian skeletal muscle tissue retains inherent regenerative capability in response to injury. This regenerative response is contingent upon an activated progenitor cell population and a temporal transition from pro-inflammatory M1 to ...

Characterisation of ATP-Dependent Mur Ligases Involved in the Biogenesis of Cell Wall Peptidoglycan in Mycobacterium tuberculosis [PDF]

, 2013
ATP-dependent Mur ligases (Mur synthetases) play essential roles in the biosynthesis of cell wall peptidoglycan (PG) as they catalyze the ligation of key amino acid residues to the stem peptide at the expense of ATP hydrolysis, thus representing ...

Plant cell wall dynamics and wall-related susceptibility in plant-pathogen interactions

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
The cell wall is a dynamic structure that often determines the outcome of the interactions between plants and pathogens. It is a barrier that pathogens need to breach to colonize the plant tissue.

Staphylococcus aureus: salt stress, cell wall deficiency, and Biofílm formation [PDF]

, 2008
Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a major cause of chronic infection and is of particular concern in the infection of implanted prostheses. Biofilm formation offers bacteria innate protection from antimicrobial agents and prevents the eradication of ...

The basic leucine zipper transcription factor MeaB is critical for biofilm formation, cell wall integrity, and virulence in Aspergillus fumigatus

mSphere
The regulation of fungal cell wall biosynthesis is crucial for cell wall integrity maintenance and directly impacts fungal pathogen virulence. Although numerous genes are involved in fungal cell wall polysaccharide biosynthesis through multiple pathways,

Left atrial wall stress distribution and its relationship to electrophysiologic remodeling in persistent atrial fibrillation

, 2012
Background—Atrial stretch causes remodeling that predisposes to atrial fibrillation. We tested the hypothesis that peaks in left atrial (LA) wall stress are associated with focal remodeling.\ud \ud Methods and Results—Nineteen patients underwent LA ...
