Identification and characterisation of the Arabidopsis thaliana cell wall proteome: unravelling novel cell wall proteins and new potential functions of the plant extracellular matrix [PDF]

, 2001
The application of the proteomic approach has facilitated efforts directed toward the mapping of the entire Arabidopsis cell wall proteome. Proteins were sequentially extracted from purified cell walls using 0.2 M CaC1(_2) followed by a urea buffer.

Sensitivity of Aspergillus nidulans to the cellulose synthase inhibitor dichlobenil: insights from wall-related genes' expression and ultrastructural hyphal morphologies.

PLoS ONE, 2013
The fungal cell wall constitutes an important target for the development of antifungal drugs, because of its central role in morphogenesis, development and determination of fungal-specific molecular features.

Melanin's Role in Balancing Mechanical Strength and Reproductive Output in Environmentally Stressed Fungal Spores

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Melanin content directly controls fungal spore mechanical properties, with pigmented spores achieving rupture forces two orders of magnitude higher than hyaline spores. Environmental stress drives this quantity‐quality tradeoff; stressed species invest energy in melanin‐reinforced, mechanically superior thick‐walled, super‐hydrophobic spores, while ...

Adsorbent Materials for Hydrocarbons Removal by Geopolymerization of Halloysite Clay Nanotubes Filled Within Chitosan Matrix

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Alkaline activation of halloysite clay nanotubes embedded in a chitosan matrix converts bionanocomposite films into porous geopolymeric materials with enhanced adsorption capacity toward hydrocarbons in both vapor and aqueous phases. The improved adsorption performance was demonstrated by the efficient capture of dodecane vapors and phenol from water ...

Vesicular transport across the fungal cell wall [PDF]

Trends in Microbiology, 2009
Recent findings indicate that fungi use vesicular transport to deliver substances across their cell walls. Fungal vesicles are similar to mammalian exosomes and could originate from cytoplasmic multivesicular bodies. Vesicular transport enables the export of large molecules across the cell wall, and vesicles contain lipids, proteins and polysaccharides,
