One of defense mechanisms of the human immune system to counteract infection by the opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida albicans is the recruitment of neutrophils to the site of invasion, and the subsequent production of neutrophil extracellular traps (

Lessons from Fungal F-Box Proteins [PDF]
The F-box domain, so called after a conserved domain found in human cyclin F (5), was described in 1996 (6) after first being denoted a conserved N-terminal domain found in a subset of proteins (110). The F-box hypothesis was introduced shortly after (162, 185) and holds that F-box-containing proteins (henceforth F-box proteins) act as scavengers in ...

Fibril elongation mechanisms of HET-s prion-forming domain: Topological evidence for growth polarity [PDF]
The prion-forming C-terminal domain of the fungal prion HET-s forms infectious amyloid fibrils at physiological pH. The conformational switch from the non-prion soluble form to the prion fibrillar form is believed to have a functional role, since HET-s in its prion form participates in a recognition process of different fungal strains.

On stimulating fungi $Pleurotus~ostreatus$ with Cortisol [PDF]
Fungi cells are capable of sensing extracellular cues through reception, transduction and response systems which allow them to communicate with their host and adapt to their environment. They display effective regulatory protein expressions which enhance and regulate their response and adaptation to a variety of triggers such as stress, hormones, light,

The origin and potential function of corpora amylacea (CA) remains largely unknown. Low numbers of CA are detected in the aging brain of normal individuals but they are abundant in the central nervous system of patients with neurodegenerative diseases ...

Hydrogen peroxide acts on sensitive mitochondrial proteins to induce death of a fungal pathogen revealed by proteomic analysis. [PDF]
How the host cells of plants and animals protect themselves against fungal invasion is a biologically interesting and economically important problem. Here we investigate the mechanistic process that leads to death of Penicillium expansum, a widespread ...

Phylogenetic analysis of fungal ABC transporters
Background The superfamily of ABC proteins is among the largest known in nature. Its members are mainly, but not exclusively, involved in the transport of a broad range of substrates across biological membranes. Many contribute to multidrug resistance in
