Diagnostic Biomarkers for Invasive Candidiasis: A Clinician-Oriented Review [PDF]
Introduction: A group of approximately 15 Candida species are frequently found to be responsible for human invasive candidiasis, an infection that appears in patients with prolonged hospitalization, particularly in Intensive Care Units, and in ...

Softening-up mannan-rich cell walls [PDF]
The softening and degradation of the cell wall (CW), often mannan enriched, is involved in several processes during development of higher plants, such as meristematic growth, fruit ripening, programmed cell death, and endosperm rupture upon germination ...

Opportunities for Ivory Nut Residue Valorization as a Source of Nanocellulose Colloidal Suspensions
Ivory nut seeds have been traditionally exploited in Central and South America for obtaining vegetable ivory. The residues from this industry are susceptible to valorization as a source of fatty acids (by organic extraction) and mannans (by alkaline ...

Yeast Mnn9 is both a priming glycosyltransferase and an allosteric activator of mannan biosynthesis [PDF]
The fungal cell possesses an essential carbohydrate cell wall. The outer layer, mannan, is formed by mannoproteins carrying highly mannosylated O- and N-linked glycans. Yeast mannan biosynthesis is initiated by a Golgi-located complex (M-Pol I) of two GT-

Dectin-1-Mediated DC-SIGN Recruitment to Candida albicans Contact Sites
At host–pathogen contact sites with Candida albicans, Dectin-1 activates pro-inflammatory signaling, while DC-SIGN promotes adhesion to the fungal surface. We observed that Dectin-1 and DC-SIGN collaborate to enhance capture/retention of C.

Sustainable industry practices and circular economy concepts encourage the transformation of production waste into by-products. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is widely used in fermentation industry worldwide, generating large amounts of spent yeast which is mainly directed to animal feed or discarded as waste.
