Harnessing Epigenetic Modifiers Reveals MAPK-Mediated Regulation Mechanisms in Hadal Fungi of Alternaria alternata Under High Hydrostatic Pressure

Journal of Fungi
High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) significantly modulates microbial metabolism, while chemical epigenetic modifiers are known to reactivate silent biosynthetic gene clusters and induce novel natural products.

Regulation of meiotic gene expression is functional in the human fungal pathogen Candida glabrata

FEMS Yeast Research
Abstract The human fungal pathogen Candida glabrata is closely related to the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The sexual cycle in S. cerevisiae has been extensively characterized. Haploid cells ‘a’ and alpha secrete pheromones involved in mating of the opposite cell type leading to the formation of a diploid cell.

Differential expression of the hexose‐regulated fungal genes AmPAL and AmMst1 within Amanita/Populus ectomycorrhizas [PDF]

New Phytologist, 2001
Summary  At least three fungal ‘networks’ are formed in ectomycorrhizal symbiosis: the Hartig net, the sheath and extramatrical hyphae. Since these structures have different functions regarding uptake, storage and partitioning of carbohydrates and nutrients, regulation and coordination of metabolic fluxes are of special interest for ectomycorrhizal ...

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Candidate Genes for Light Regulation of Elsinochrome Biosynthesis in Elsinoë arachidis

Microorganisms
Light regulation is critical in fungal growth, development, morphogenesis, secondary metabolism, and the biological clock. The fungus Elsinoë arachidis is known to produce the mycotoxin Elsinochrome (ESC), a key factor contributing to its pathogenicity ...

Transcriptome analysis of silkworm, Bombyx mori, during early response to Beauveria bassiana challenges. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Host-pathogen interactions are complex processes and it is a central challenge to reveal these interactions. Fungal infection of silkworm, Bombyx mori, may induce a variety of responsive reaction. However, little is known about the molecular mechanism of

The consciousness of stress: Functional roles of ORFs and MicroRNAs in tomato defense against fungal pathogens

Plant Stress
Tomato plants constantly encounter fungal pathogens, which trigger intricate defense mechanisms at the molecular level. Among these, upstream open reading frames (uORFs) and main open reading frames (mORFs), together with microRNAs (miRNAs), play pivotal

Streptomyces roseolus, A Promising Biocontrol Agent Against Aspergillus flavus, the Main Aflatoxin B₁ Producer

Toxins, 2018
Crop contamination by aflatoxin B1 is a current problem in tropical and subtropical regions. In the future, this contamination risk may be expanded to European countries due to climate change.
