Antibody Binding Alters the Characteristics and Contents of Extracellular Vesicles Released by Histoplasma capsulatum

open access: yesmSphere, 2016
Histoplasma capsulatum produces extracellular vesicles containing virulence-associated molecules capable of modulating host machinery, benefiting the pathogen. Treatment of H.

Evaluation of Unconventional Protein Secretion by Saccharomyces cerevisiae and other Fungi

open access: yesCells, 2018
Development of proteome analysis of extracellular proteins has revealed that a wide variety of proteins, including fungal allergens are present outside the cell. These secreted allergens often do not contain known secretion signal sequences.

The SPFH Protein Superfamily in Fungi: Impact on Mitochondrial Function and Implications in Virulence

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Integral membrane proteins from the ancient SPFH (stomatin, prohibitin, flotillin, HflK/HflC) protein superfamily are found in nearly all living organisms.

A Novel Class of Ectomycorrhiza-Regulated Cell Wall Polypeptides in Pisolithus tinctorius

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1999
Development of the ectomycorrhizal symbiosis leads to the aggregation of fungal hyphae to form the mantle. To identify cell surface proteins involved in this developmental step, changes in the biosynthesis of fungal cell wall proteins were examined in ...

Proteome analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage fluids reveals host and fungal proteins highly expressed during invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in mice and humans

open access: yesVirulence, 2020
Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) is a severe infection that is difficult to diagnose due to the ubiquitous presence of fungal spores, the underlying diseases of risk patients, and limitations of currently available markers.

The Fungal CYP51s: Their Functions, Structures, Related Drug Resistance, and Inhibitors

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
CYP51 (Erg11) belongs to the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (CYP) superfamily and mediates a crucial step of the synthesis of ergosterol, which is a fungal-specific sterol. It is also the target of azole drugs in clinical practice.

A Bright Future for Fluorescence Imaging of Fungi in Living Hosts

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2019
Traditional in vivo investigation of fungal infection and new antifungal therapies in mouse models is usually carried out using post mortem methodologies. However, biomedical imaging techniques focusing on non-invasive techniques using bioluminescent and

N-termini of fungal CSL transcription factors are disordered, enriched in regulatory motifs and inhibit DNA binding in fission yeast. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
CSL (CBF1/RBP-Jκ/Suppressor of Hairless/LAG-1) transcription factors are the effector components of the Notch receptor signalling pathway, which is critical for metazoan development.

Fungal Secretome Database: Integrated platform for annotation of fungal secretomes

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2010
Background Fungi secrete various proteins that have diverse functions. Prediction of secretory proteins using only one program is unsatisfactory. To enhance prediction accuracy, we constructed Fungal Secretome Database (FSD).

Exposure to specific fungal lectins during adhesion impairs biofilm formation of Listeria on polystyrene

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology
Listeria monocytogenes is a pathogenic bacterium that can form biofilms in food processing plants, allowing the bacteria to survive despite the control measures applied.
