Regulators of plant biomass degradation in ascomycetous fungi
Fungi play a major role in the global carbon cycle because of their ability to utilize plant biomass (polysaccharides, proteins, and lignin) as carbon source.

Strategies for the Development of Industrial Fungal Producing Strains
The use of microorganisms in industry has enabled the (over)production of various compounds (e.g., primary and secondary metabolites, proteins and enzymes) that are relevant for the production of antibiotics, food, beverages, cosmetics, chemicals and ...

Hemolysins are a class of proteins defined by their ability to lyse red cells but have been described to exhibit pleiotropic functions. These proteins have been extensively studied in bacteria and more recently in fungi. Within the last decade, a number of studies have characterized fungal hemolysins and revealed a fascinating yet diverse group of ...

Invasive fungal disease continues to be a cause of significant life-threatening morbidity and mortality in humans, particularly in those with a diminished immune system, such as with haematological malignancies. The mainstay of treating such life-threatening fungal infection has been antifungal drugs, including azoles, echinocandins and macrocyclic ...
