The Fungal Cell Wall: Candida, Cryptococcus, and Aspergillus Species [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 The fungal cell wall is located outside the plasma membrane and is the cell compartment that mediates all the relationships of the cell with the environment. It protects the contents of the cell, gives rigidity and defines the cellular structure.

Interactions between copper homeostasis and the fungal cell wall affect copper stress resistance. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2022 Copper homeostasis mechanisms are essential for microbial adaption to changing copper levels within the host during infection. In the opportunistic fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans (Cn), the Cn Cbi1/Bim1 protein is a newly identified copper ...

Post-transcriptional control of fungal cell wall synthesis [PDF]
The Cell Surface, 2022 Pathogenic fungi hide from their hosts by camouflage, obscuring immunogenic cell wall components such as beta-glucan with innocuous coverings such as mannoproteins and alpha-glucan that are less readily recognised by the host.

Fungal Cell Wall: Emerging Antifungals and Drug Resistance [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 The cell wall is an essential component in fungal homeostasis. The lack of a covering wall in human cells makes this component an attractive target for antifungal development. The host environment and antifungal stress can lead to cell wall modifications

The interaction with fungal cell wall polysaccharides determines the salt tolerance of antifungal plant defensins [PDF]
The Cell Surface, 2019 The fungal cell wall is the first point of contact between fungal pathogens and host organisms. It serves as a protective barrier against biotic and abiotic stresses and as a signal to the host that a fungal pathogen is present.

Prospects for anti-Candida therapy through targeting the cell wall: A mini-review
The Cell Surface, 2021 The impact of fungal infections on humans is a serious public health issue that has received much less attention than bacterial infection and treatment, despite ever-increasing incidence exacerbated by an increased incidence of immunocompromised ...
