Fungal proteins with antiproliferative and anticancer activities.
Protein & Peptide Letters, 2013Fungi produce a variety of proteins with antiproliferative activity toward tumor cells and anticancer activity in tumor bearing mice. The aforementioned fungal proteins include ribonucleases, antifungal proteins, ubiquitin-like peptides, ribosome ...

Hydrophobins, unique fungal proteins
Mycologist, 2000Hydrophobins are proteins that appear unique to mycelial fungi. They play essential roles in the emergence of aerial structures, gas exchange in fruiting bodies and lichens, and in pathogenesis. These roles are all based on the remarkable properties of these proteins as observed in vitro .

Artificial Evolution of Fungal Proteins
, 2004Numerous techniques have been developed over the last two decades to change characteristics of proteins, and with these techniques it has become feasible to customize proteins for specific commercial and environmental applications. For instance, a fungal lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus has been improved to increase its performance in detergent ...

Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2009
It is accepted that most fungal avirulence genes encode virulence factors that are called effectors. Most fungal effectors are secreted, cysteine-rich proteins, and a role in virulence has been shown for a few of them, including Avr2 and Avr4 of Cladosporium fulvum, which inhibit plant cysteine proteases and protect chitin in fungal cell walls against

This chapter reviews the uses of processed fungal cells as protein-rich foods in substitution to meat. Yeasts, mushrooms, and filamentous fungi have long been part of the human diet, improving the nutritional quality and taste of different foods. Recently, because of the populational growth and environmental impact caused by animal farming, the use of ...

Fungal Protein Production: Design and Production of Chimeric Proteins
Annual Review of Microbiology, 2011For more than a century, filamentous fungi have been used for the production of a wide variety of endogenous enzymes of industrial interest. More recently, with the use of genetic engineering tools developed for these organisms, this use has expanded for the production of nonnative heterologous proteins.

[17] Protein conjugates of fungal toxins
1985Publisher Summary The chapter presents the use of toxins for protein coupling with a native carboxylic function, such as β -amanitin ( β A) and phallacidin (PC) or chemically modified toxins with carboxylic groups introduced by spacer moieties. Toxin derivatives with functional amino groups can also be coupled to proteins, as proved by the use of αA-

ABC proteins in yeast and fungal pathogens
Essays in Biochemistry, 2011All fungal genomes harbour numerous ABC (ATP-binding cassette) proteins located in various cellular compartments such as the plasma membrane, vacuoles, peroxisomes and mitochondria. Most of them have initially been discovered through their ability to confer resistance to a multitude of drugs, a phenomenon called PDR (pleiotropic drug resistance) or MDR
