Autophagy in filamentous fungi
Fungal Genetics and Biology, 2009Autophagy is a ubiquitous, non-selective degradation process in eukaryotic cells that is conserved from yeast to man. Autophagy research has increased significantly in the last ten years, as autophagy has been connected with cancer, neurodegenerative disease and various human developmental processes.

Filamentous Fungi Extracellular Vesicles
2021Since the first description of extracellular vesicles in a filamentous fungus, Alternaria infectoria, data has been gathered showing the importance of EVs in the interaction of filamentous fungi with the environment and with the animal and plant hosts. In Aspergillus spp.

Mycotoxins are low-molecular-weight secondary metabolites of fungi. The most significant mycotoxins are contaminants of agricultural commodities, foods and feeds. Fungi that produce these toxins do so both prior to harvest and during storage. Although contamination of commodities by toxigenic fungi occurs frequently in areas with a hot and humid ...

Interaction of phagocytes with filamentous fungi
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2010Phagocytosis of conidia by macrophages and destruction of hyphae by neutrophils are key processes in the defense against infections caused by filamentous fungi. Impairment in phagocytic function leads to increased susceptibility for an infection with Aspergillus species. The fact that a Th1-based immune response to an infection with Aspergillus species

The Autolysis of Industrial Filamentous Fungi
Critical Reviews in Biotechnology, 2002Fungal autolysis is the natural process of self-digestion of aged hyphal cultures, occurring as a result of hydrolase activity, causing vacuolation and disruption of organelle and cell wall structure. Previously, authors have considered individual aspects of fungal lysis, in terms of either an enzyme, a process or an organism.

Soilborne filamentous fungi in Brazil
Journal of Basic Microbiology, 2005The Atlantic Rainforest is a Brazilian ecosystem that is being rapidly being destroyed, along with the abiotic and biotic factors present in it. Among the biotic factors, the fungi are found in the soil which, besides being of major importance in terms of ecological niches, also have broad and significant applications in biotechnology.

The Morphology of Filamentous Fungi
2000The morphology of fungi has received attention from both pure and applied scientists. The subject is complicated, because many genes and physiological mechanisms are involved in the development of a particular morphological type: its morphogenesis. The contribution from pure physiologists is growing steadily as more and more details of the transport ...

Protoplast Transformation of Filamentous Fungi
2010The protoplast method for the transformation of filamentous fungi is described in detail, as is the Restriction Enzyme-Mediated Integration (REMI) procedure for introducing tagged mutations into the fungal genome. A split marker method for generating PCR fragments for targeted integration and deletion of genes of interest is also detailed.

Genetic Engineering of Filamentous Fungi
Science, 1989Filamentous fungi are important in medicine, industry, agriculture, and basic biological research. For example, some fungal species are pathogenic to humans, whereas others produce β-lactam antibiotics (penicillin and cephalosporin). Industrial strains produce large amounts of enzymes, such as glucosamylose and proteases, and low molecular weight ...

Transposable Elements in Filamentous Fungi
Annual Review of Microbiology, 2003▪ Abstract The past 10 years have been productive in the characterization of fungal transposable elements (TEs). All eukaryotic TEs described are found including an extraordinary prevalence of active members of the pogo family. The role of TEs in mutation and genome organization is well documented, leading to significant advances in our perception of
