Molecular characterization of a fungal gasdermin-like protein [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020
Significance Numerous cell death-controlling genes have been identified in fungi, especially in the context of conspecific nonself discrimination (allorecognition). However, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which these genes trigger programmed cell death (PCD) is limited, as is our knowledge about their relation ...

Metaproteomic profiling of fungal gut colonization in gnotobiotic mice

open access: yesAnimal Microbiome, 2022
Background Eukaryotic microbes can modulate mammalian host health and disease states, yet the molecular contribution of gut fungi remains nascent. We previously showed that mice exclusively colonised with fungi displayed increased sensitivity to allergic

Ferric reductase-related proteins mediate fungal heme acquisition

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Heme can serve as iron source in many environments, including the iron-poor animal host environment. The fungal pathobiont Candida albicans expresses a family of extracellular CFEM hemophores that capture heme from host proteins and transfer it across ...

Mycology: Protein Control of Fungal Nanoparticle Formation [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2021
The ability of fungi to immobilize metals is an extraordinary phenomenon. Now, a protein involved in the formation of copper carbonate nanoparticles has been identified, and suggests that the process is under the control of the fungus, opening new avenues for the synthesis of nanomaterials.

Evolution of asexual and sexual reproduction in the aspergilli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Aspergillus nidulans has long-been used as a model organism to gain insights into the genetic basis of asexual and sexual developmental processes both in other members of the genus Aspergillus, and filamentous fungi in general.

Proteomic Analysis of Pathogenic Fungi Reveals Highly Expressed Conserved Cell Wall Proteins

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2016
We are presenting a quantitative proteomics tally of the most commonly expressed conserved fungal proteins of the cytosol, the cell wall, and the secretome.

The fungal elicitor cryptogein is a sterol carrier protein [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1997
Cryptogein is a protein secreted by the phytopathogenic pseudo‐fungus, Phytophthora cryptogea. It is a basic 10 kDa hydrophilic protein having a hydrophobic pocket and three disulfide bridges. These common features with sterol carrier proteins led us to investigate its possible sterol transfer activity using the fluorescent sterol, dehydroergosterol ...
