Human CLPP reverts the longevity phenotype of a fungal ClpP deletion strain [PDF]
, 2013 Mitochondrial maintenance crucially depends on the quality control of proteins by various chaperones, proteases and repair enzymes. While most of the involved components have been studied in some detail, little is known on the biological role of the ...

Establishment of Neurospora crassa as a model organism for fungal virology
Nature Communications, 2020 The filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa is used as a model organism for genetics, developmental biology and molecular biology. Remarkably, it is not known to host or to be susceptible to infection with any viruses.
