The polypeptide transport-associated (POTRA) domains of TpsB transporters determine the system specificity of Two-Partner Secretion systems. [PDF]

, 2014
The two-partner secretion (TPS) systems of Gram-negative bacteria secrete large TpsA exoproteins by a dedicated TpsB transporter in the outer membrane.

Identifying and characterising a plant GH1 β‐glucosidase that exhibits hydrolytic activity on N‐linked glucopyranoside

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We report the first β‐glucosidase with demonstrated hydrolytic activity on an N‐linked glycopyranoside. The enzyme, native to maize, was biochemically characterised for this novel reaction, and structural modelling of the enzyme–substrate complex revealed several clues to the underlying reduced catalytic rate relative to its native O‐glycopyranoside ...

Plasmodium Secretion Induces Hepatocyte Lysosome Exocytosis and Promotes Parasite Entry

iScience, 2019
Summary: The invasion of a suitable host hepatocyte by Plasmodium sporozoites is an essential step in malaria infection. We demonstrate that in infected hepatocytes, lysosomes are redistributed away from the nucleus, and surface exposure of lysosome ...

Unraveling the mystery of commercial cultivation of Agaricus bisporus: plant biomass utilization and its effect on mushroom production [PDF]

, 2015
Agaricus bisporus, the white button mushroom, is economically the most important mushroom cultivated worldwide. Growth of A. bisporus needs a substrate produced by the composting of animal manure, wheat straw, gypsum, water and different additives ...

Avidin is evolutionarily conserved in fish but dispensable for development and resistance against Streptococcus agalactiae in zebrafish

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...

Heterogeneity in Microbial Micro-colonies [PDF]

, 2013
Filamentous microbes play an important role in nutrient recycling by degrading dead organic material. Moreover, they can be used as cell factories for the production of pharmaceuticals and enzymes and metabolites.

Malassezia spp. beyond The Mycobiota [PDF]

, 2017
Malassezia species are part of the normal mycobiota of skin of animals and humans but they can cause skin and blood stream infections as well. These yeasts are all lipid dependent explained by the absence of fatty acid synthase genes in their genome.

Hyphal heterogeneity in Aspergillus niger [PDF]

, 2011
Mycelial fungi use hyphae to colonize substrates. These hyphae secrete enzymes that convert complex polymers into breakdown products that can be taken up to serve as nutrients.

Cell Biology of Hyphal Growth [PDF]

, 2017
Filamentous fungi are a large and ancient clade of microorganisms that occupy a broad range of ecological niches. The success of filamentous fungi is largely due to their elongate hypha, a chain of cells, separated from each other by septa.
