The potential of plant proteins as antifungal agents for agricultural applications
Fungal pathogens induce a variety of diseases in both plants and post-harvest food crops, resulting in significant crop losses for the agricultural industry. Although the usage of chemical-based fungicides is the most common way to control these diseases,

Evolutionary Reshaping of Fungal Mating Pathway Scaffold Proteins
Scaffold proteins play central roles in the function of many signaling pathways. Among the best-studied examples are the Ste5 and Far1 proteins of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. These proteins contain three conserved modules, the RING and PH domains,

Fungal immunomodulatory proteins alleviate docetaxel-induced adverse effects
Docetaxel is widely used in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. Fungal immunomodulatory proteins of Flammulina velutipes (FIP-fve) and Ganoderma tsugae (FIP-gts) possess immunomodulatory and anti-cancer effects.

Phylogenomics analysis of velvet regulators in the fungal kingdom
All life forms have evolved to respond appropriately to various environmental and internal cues. In the animal kingdom, the prototypical regulator class of such cellular responses is the Rel homology domain proteins including nuclear factor kappa-light ...
