Evaluating the Impact of DNA Extraction Method on the Representation of Human Oral Bacterial and Fungal Communities. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
The application of high-throughput, next-generation sequencing technologies has greatly improved our understanding of the human oral microbiome. While deciphering this diverse microbial community using such approaches is more accurate than traditional ...

Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) as Dna Barcoding to Identify Fungal Species: a Review

Squalen, 2016
Despite the fact that fungi are important sources of both bioactive compounds and mycotoxins, and that they are very ubiquitous in our environment, their species identification is hampered by incomplete and often unclear literature.

Using DNA Barcoding in Fungal Taxonomy

Yüzüncü Yıl Üniversitesi Tarım Bilimleri Dergisi, 2020
Totally, 1.5 million fungal species estimated, of which less than 10 percent have been described to date. Recent advances in molecular biology as well as gene sequencing technologies facilitate the discovery and identification of new species in various groups of living organisms, especially fungi.

An overview of using fungal DNA for the diagnosis of invasive mycoses

Expert Review of Molecular Diagnostics, 2022
Fungal PCR has undergone considerable standardization and, together with the availability of commercial assays, external quality assessment schemes, and extensive performance validation data, is ready for widespread use for the screening and diagnosis of invasive fungal disease (IFD).Drawing on the experience and knowledge of the leads of the various ...

Mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities of the ribotoxic stress response in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cancer cells' high translational demand creates opportunities to therapeutically target ribosome function. Ribosome stalling and collisions activate ZAKα and the ribotoxic stress response (RSR), which can trigger rapid, p53‐independent apoptosis in cancer.

Hyperactive ice‐binding proteins stabilize cell membranes and improve resistance to dehydration stress in Caenorhabditis elegans

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
TisIBP8, a fungal‐derived hyperactive ice‐binding protein, helps Caenorhabditis elegans survive dehydration. It localizes near cell membranes, reduces cell damage, and helps maintain membrane structure during drying. These results suggest that ice‐binding proteins can protect cells from dehydration stress as well as freezing stress.

SWI/SNF complex-mediated chromatin remodeling in Candida glabrata promotes immune evasion

iScience
Summary: Immune evasion is critical for fungal virulence. However, how the human opportunistic pathogen Candida glabrata (Cg) accomplishes this is unknown. Here, we present the first genome-wide nucleosome map of the macrophage-internalized Cg consisting
