Hospital‐treated infections are linked to increased risk of inflammatory bowel disease in a large prospective cohort. This risk differs by infection burden, time since infection, and host immune‐genetic susceptibility. The findings support a multi‐hit pathogenesis model in which severe infection and inherited susceptibility jointly shape inflammatory ...

Harnessing the Tet-Off system for effective gene silencing in Magnaporthe oryzae
Rice blast is the most serious fungal disease affecting rice production worldwide. Studying gene function in the rice-blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae often presents significant challenges, especially if it involves loci that are essential for the fungal ...

Comparative and Functional Analysis of Gene Expression in Ophiostoma Species [PDF]
Ophiostoma floccosum and Ophiostoma piliferum are polymorphic ascomycete fungi found throughout the world. Both species are important economically as they are known to colonise timber and cause discoloration of wood thus reducing its aesthetic value and ...

High-throughput SuperSAGE for digital gene expression analysis of multiple samples using next generation sequencing [PDF]
We established a protocol of the SuperSAGE technology combined with next-generation sequencing, coined "High- Throughput (HT-) SuperSAGE". SuperSAGE is a method of digital gene expression profiling that allows isolation of 26-bp tag fragments from ...

Subversion of Atypical Mucin Traps by a Spore‐Coat Effector Blocks Cellular Immunity in Drosophila
While the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium robertsii can evade insect humoral immunity, its subversion of cellular defenses is still elusive. We identify Eac1 as a spore‐coat protein essential for infecting drosophilids by targeting atypical mucins (Sgf1 and Sgf2), which can entrap spores in a gel matrix and thereby facilitate hemocyte encapsulation.

Recombinant expression of fungal oxidases for industrial application [PDF]
Laccases catalyse the oxidation of a range of organic substrates coupled to the reduction of molecular oxygen to water. They are members of the ubiquitous blue multi-copper oxidase family.

Balancing noise and plasticity in gene expression [PDF]
Coupling the control of expression stochasticity (noise) with the capacity to expression change (plasticity) can constrain gene function and limit adaptation. Which factors contribute then to modulate this coupling?

Functional Characterization of the Small Heat Shock Protein Hsp12p from Candida albicans [PDF]
Hsp12p is considered to be a small heat shock protein and conserved among fungal species. To investigate the expression of this heat shock protein in the fungal pathogen Candida albicans we developed an anti-CaHsp12p antibody.

Plant‐based nanomaterials derived from alfalfa serve as dual‐function catalysts, coupling photodegradation and phytoremediation to degrade polyethylene under UV‐A light and in soil. The nanomaterials work synergistically with alfalfa and soil microbes, achieving efficient plastic breakdown without trophic transfer.
