Harmful impact of filamentous algae (Spirogyra sp.) on juvenile crayfish
The aim of this study was to determine the impact of filamentous algae on the growth and survival of juvenile narrow-clawed crayfish, Astacus leptodactylus (Esch.), in rearing basins.

The MAP Kinase SsKpp2 Is Required for Mating/Filamentation in Sporisorium scitamineum
In the phytopathogenic fungus Sporisorium scitamineum, sexual mating between two compatible haploid cells and the subsequent formation of dikaryotic hyphae is essential for infection. This process was shown to be commonly regulated by a mitogen-activated

The CnuK9E H-NS complex antagonizes DNA binding of DicA and leads to temperature-dependent filamentous growth in E. coli. [PDF]
Cnu (an OriC-binding nucleoid protein) associates with H-NS. A variant of Cnu was identified as a key factor for filamentous growth of a wild-type Escherichia coli strain at 37°C.

Actin filaments regulate microtubule growth at the centrosome [PDF]
The centrosome is the main microtubule-organizing centre. It also organizes a local network of actin filaments. However, the precise function of the actin network at the centrosome is not well understood. Here, we show that increasing densities of actin filaments at the centrosome of lymphocytes are correlated with reduced amounts of microtubules ...

Malformin A1–mediated cytotoxicity in ovarian cancer cells occurs through pyroptosis and autophagy
This study investigated the effects of the natural compound Malformin A1 (MA1) on the cytoskeleton that regulates cell proliferation and migration. Disruption of the cytoskeleton can impair these processes and promote cancer cell death. MA1 disrupted cytoskeletal organization, induced DNA damage, inflammation, activated autophagy, and pyroptosis ...

Many fungal species can utilize N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) as a carbon source. Studies in the pathogenic yeast Candida albicans have revealed that GlcNAc utilization and the induction of GlcNAc catabolic genes depend on the Ndt80 family transcription ...

Filamentous growth ofPseudomonas aeruginosa
The growth of two strains ofPseudomonas aeruginosa in stirred batch cultures was monitored by optical density, DNA concentration, and acridine orange direct cell count measurements. Growth of adherent bacteria in pure culture was also observed on suspended glass discs by light and scanning electron microscopy. Strain MUCOID produced significant numbers

NRG1, a repressor of filamentous growth in C.albicans, is down‐regulated during filament induction [PDF]
In response to a variety of external signals, the fungal pathogen Candida albicans undergoes a transition between ellipsoidal single cells (blastospores) and filaments composed of elongated cells attached end-to-end. Here we identify a DNA-binding protein, Nrg1, that represses filamentous growth in Candida probably by acting through the co-repressor ...

KDAC6 has been associated with cell motility and actin structures, but specific domain contributions are not established. The two catalytic domains have differential effects on motility and F‐actin regulation, affecting cortical F‐actin density, motility, stress fibers, and cell spreading.
