Emergomyces canadensis, a Dimorphic Fungus Causing Fatal Systemic Human Disease in North America [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
We report 4 patients in North America with disease caused by Emergomyces canadensis, a newly proposed species of pathogenic dimorphic fungus. Affected persons were immunocompromised; lived in Saskatchewan, Colorado, and New Mexico; and had systemic ...

Identification of microRNA-like RNAs in mycelial and yeast phases of the thermal dimorphic fungus Penicillium marneffei. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2013
BACKGROUND: Penicillium marneffei is the most important thermal dimorphic fungus causing systemic mycosis in China and Southeast Asia. While miRNAs are increasingly recognized for their roles in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in ...

Polyketides, Toxins and Pigments in Penicillium marneffei [PDF]

Toxins, 2015
Penicillium marneffei (synonym: Talaromyces marneffei) is the most important pathogenic thermally dimorphic fungus in China and Southeastern Asia. The HIV/AIDS pandemic, particularly in China and other Southeast Asian countries, has led to the emergence ...

The telomerase reverse transcriptase subunit from the dimorphic fungus Ustilago maydis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
In this study, we investigated the reverse transcriptase subunit of telomerase in the dimorphic fungus Ustilago maydis. This protein (Trt1) contains 1371 amino acids and all of the characteristic TERT motifs.

Signaling Pathways Regulating Dimorphism in Medically Relevant Fungal Species [PDF]

Pathogens
Pathogenic fungi that exhibit the ability to alternate between hyphal and yeast morphology in response to environmental stimuli are considered dimorphic. Under saprobic conditions, some fungi exist as filamentous hyphae, producing conidia.
