Role of the Heme Activator Protein Complex in the Sexual Development of Cryptococcus neoformans
mSphere, 2022 The CCAAT-binding heme activator protein (HAP) complex, comprising the DNA-binding heterotrimeric complex Hap2/3/5 and transcriptional activation subunit HapX, is a key regulator of iron homeostasis, mitochondrial functions, and pathogenicity in ...

The Stochastic Encounter-Mating Model
, 2016 We propose a new model of permanent monogamous pair formation in zoological populations with multiple types of females and males. According to this model, animals randomly encounter members of the opposite sex at their so-called firing times to form ...

Mating Types in Stylonychia putrina.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1952 Although conjugation in ciliated Protozoa was long extensively studied, especially by Maupas(1), mating types were first discovered by Sonneborn(2). It is now known that mating types exist in Paramecium aurelia(2,3) P. bursaria(4-6), P. caudatum(7-11), P. multimicronucleatum(11), P. trichium(12), P. calkinsi(12-14), and Euplotes patella(15). In several

The Biological Bulletin, 1953 1. Conjugating strains representing three different mating types of Tetrahymena pyriformis have been isolated from fresh water ponds in the Woods Hole, Massachusetts, area and established in axenic cultures.2. These strains have the same amino acid and vitamin requirements as T. pyriformis E.3. The cytology of conjugation is described.4.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Mating-type loci of Ustilago esculenta are essential for mating and development
Fungal Genetics and Biology, 2019 Ustilago esculenta is closely related to the smut fungus Ustilago maydis and, in an endophytic-like life in the plant Zizania latifolia, only infects host stems and causes swollen stems to form edible galls called Jiaobai in China. In order to study its different modes of invasion and sites of symptom development from other smut fungi at the molecular ...

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Discovery and Characterization of Epichloë Fungal Endophytes from Elymus spp. in Northwest China
MicroorganismsEpichloë fungal endophytes hold promise in sustainable agriculture by fortifying cool-season grasses such as Elymus spp. against various stresses. Elymus spp. are widely distributed in Northwest China with a high incidence of endophyte infections.
