Cryptococcus neoformans: "An Ascomycete"
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1955 ConclusionsThese observations would seem to indicate that Cryptococcus neofor-mans and Lipomyces starkeyi may be one and the same organism, and that it is frequently isolated from the soil.

Localization of mannoprotein in Cryptococcus neoformans [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1989 Cell wall mannoprotein of nonpathogenic yeasts is surface exposed, since the cells are agglutinated by concanavalin A and antimannoprotein antibodies. However, nonencapsulated cells of Cryptococcus neoformans were agglutinated neither by concanavalin A nor by antimannoprotein antibodies.

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.A series of azomethine‐pyrazole derivatives bearing a para‐substituted azo‐phenyl ring is straightforwardly prepared. The new compounds display an elevated antifungal activity against various Candida species and Cryptococcus neoformans strains. DFT and molecular docking calculations are used to determine possible routes of action through interactions ...

Fluconazole Monotherapy Is a Suboptimal Option for Initial Treatment of Cryptococcal Meningitis Because of Emergence of Resistance. [PDF]
, 2019 Cryptococcal meningitis is a lethal disease with few therapeutic options. Induction therapy with fluconazole has been consistently demonstrated to be associated with suboptimal microbiological and clinical outcomes. Exposure to fluconazole causes dynamic

Machine Learning‐Assisted Prediction and Generation of Antimicrobial Peptides
Small Science, EarlyView.A machine learning‐based in silico predictive and generative model is developed to engineer highly effective antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) for combating multidrug‐resistant pathogens. An iterative algorithm involving peptide generation, scoring, and motif identification produces AMPs with high theoretical scores.

Genome signatures, self-organizing maps and higher order phylogenies: a parametric analysis [PDF]
, 2007 Genome signatures are data vectors derived from the compositional statistics of DNA. The self-organizing map (SOM) is a neural network method for the conceptualisation of relationships within complex data, such as genome signatures.

A guide to heat shock factors as multifunctional transcriptional regulators
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.The heat shock factors (HSFs) are evolutionarily conserved transcription factors best known as regulators of molecular chaperone genes in response to heat shock and other protein‐damaging stresses. Vertebrate HSFs, HSF1‐5, HSFX, and HSFY, are implicated in various physiological and pathological processes, including organismal development and cancer ...
