Chitotriosidase and gene therapy for fungal infections
Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2009Chitotriosidase secreted by activated human macrophages has been implicated in the defence against chitin-bearing pathogens. The antifungal properties of human chitotriosidase were investigated here following retroviral vector-mediated gene transfer of the open reading frame of the chitotriosidase gene into Chinese hamster ovary cells.

Acquisition of prokaryotic genes by fungal genomes
Trends in Genetics, 2010The relevance of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) in eukaryotes is a matter of debate. Recent analyses have shown clear examples in some species such as Candida parapsilosis, but broader surveys are lacking. To assess the impact of HGT in the fungal kingdom, we searched for prokaryotic-derived HGTs in 60 fully sequenced genomes. Using strict phylogenomic

Fusarium wilt, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), is among the most destructive diseases of banana (Musa spp.). Because no credible control measures are available, development of resistant cultivars through genetic engineering is the only

Molecular genetic tools in recent years allowed the identification and detailed functional analysis of genes involved in the interplay of pathogenic fungi and their host plants. In the focus of interest today are genes involved in signaling events which accompany and control all stages in the infection and colonization processes. From the view point of

Gene targets for fungal and mycotoxin control
Mycotoxin Research, 2006It was initially shown that gallic acid, from hydrolysable tannins in the pelliele of walnut kernels, dramatically inhibits biosynthesis of aflatoxin byAspergillus flavus. The mechanism of this inhibition was found to take place upstream from the gene cluster, including the regulatory gene,aflR, involved in aflatoxin biosynthesis.

Fungal Gene-Encoded Peptidase Inhibitors
Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2013Peptidases can be inhibited by natural or synthetic small-molecule compounds, or by gene-encoded, proteinaceous inhibitors. Small-molecule peptidase inhibitors have been in the spotlight of researchers and pharmaceutical companies for many years. The studies concerning gene-encoded inhibitors are less frequent. The last decade has seen a boom of fungal

Fungal sex genes—searching for the ancestors
BioEssays, 2008AbstractThe sex‐determining genes of fungi reside at one or two specialised regions of the chromosome known as the mating type (MAT) loci. The genes are sufficient to determine haploid cell identity, enable compatible mating partners to attract each other, and prepare cells for sexual reproduction after fertilisation.

Photoregulation of Fungal Gene Expression
1996Photoresponses do not have to be mediated by fresh gene expression. Some responses are so fast that they do not allow enough time for synthesis, maturation, and transport first of the mRNA and then of the polypeptide, and for protein activity. This is the case for phototropism towards blue light, a phenomenon that has been particularly well described ...

Fungal Avirulence Genes: Structure and Possible Functions
Fungal Genetics and Biology, 1998Avirulence (Avr) genes exist in many fungi that share a gene-for-gene relationship with their host plant. They represent unique genetic determinants that prevent fungi from causing disease on plants that possess matching resistance (R) genes. Interaction between elicitors (primary or secondary products of Avr genes) and host receptors in resistant ...
