Influence of Na+ and anions on the dimorphic transition of Candida albicans [PDF]

Microbiology, 1997
The effect of Na+ (CI- or gluconate salt) on growth and dimorphic potential of the pathogenic yeast Candida albicans has been examined. Profiles of germ tube formation as a function of salt addition, pH and temperature indicated Na+ inhibition of germ tube outgrowth at high ambient pH (pH 8.0) which was exacerbated by replacement of CI- with gluconate (

Study of Dimorphism Transition Mechanism of Tremella fuciformis Based on Comparative Proteomics [PDF]

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Tremella fuciformis is a dimorphic fungus that can undertake a reversible transition between yeast-like conidia and hyphal forms. The transformation mechanism and proteomic differences between these two forms have not been reported. Therefore, in this study, we attempted to explore the differential protein profiles of dikaryotic yeast-like conidia from

Inhibition of C. albicans dimorphic transition by H. rhombea extract in different hyphal-inducing media.

, 2021
(A) C. albicans dimorphic transition was induced using RPMI 1640 and images of C. albicans cells (B) were obtained using a microscope. A: C. albicans without extract, B: C. albicans with 1.56μg/mL of extract treated, C: C.

Are evolutionary transitions in sexual size dimorphism related to sex determination in reptiles? [PDF]

Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2021
Abstract Sex determination systems are highly variable in vertebrates, although neither the causes nor the implications of this diversity are fully understood. Theory suggests that sex determination is expected to relate to sexual size dimorphism, because environmental sex determination promotes sex‐specific developmental bias in ...

Comparative genomic analysis of human fungal pathogens causing paracoccidioidomycosis. [PDF]

, 2011
Paracoccidioides is a fungal pathogen and the cause of paracoccidioidomycosis, a health-threatening human systemic mycosis endemic to Latin America. Infection by Paracoccidioides, a dimorphic fungus in the order Onygenales, is coupled with a thermally ...

Screening and Molecular Docking of Novel Benzothiazole Derivatives as Potential Antimicrobial Agents

Antibiotics, 2020
The burden of antibiotic resistance necessitates a continued search for new antimicrobials. We evaluated the antimicrobial activities of novel benzothiazoles synthesized by our group. Antibacterial activity was evaluated in vitro in Staphylococcus aureus,

Floral size and shape evolution following the transition to gender dimorphism [PDF]

American Journal of Botany, 2017
PREMISE OF THE STUDY:Floral morphology is expected to evolve following the transition from cosexuality to gender dimorphism in plants, as selection through male and female function becomes dissociated. Specifically, male‐biased dimorphism in flower size can arise through selection for larger flowers through male function, selection for smaller flowers ...

Expression of alpha tubulin during the dimorphic transition of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis [PDF]

Medical Mycology, 2001
In this study we analyzed the expression of (alpha-tubulin during the dimorphic transition of the human-pathogenic fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. The alpha-tubulin from P. brasiliensis was recognized by a commercially available anti-tubulin antibody and was developmentally regulated during the dimorphic form transition.

A model system for study of sex chromosome effects on sexually dimorphic neural and behavioral traits [PDF]

, 2002
We tested the hypothesis that genes encoded on the sex chromosomes play a direct role in sexual differentiation of brain and behavior. We used mice in which the testis-determining gene (Sry) was moved from the Y chromosome to an autosome (by deletion of ...
