Biological features of fungi of the genus Mucor [PDF]
BIO Web of Conferences, 2023 Mucor belongs to the most prominent order Mucorales, a phylogenetically ancient group of fungi referred to as “early divergent fungi”. The genus Mucor contains several species. The most common are Mucor amphibiorum, M. circinelloides, M.

Transient Mucor circinelloides fungemia
Canadian Journal of General Internal Medicine, 2021 Mucor circinelloides is a filamentous fungus that causes rare but devastating human infections. It is also a known human colonizer and laboratory contaminant which is tough to grow in blood culture. We present a case of a 48-year-old male presenting with fever, confusion, and hemodynamic instability, ultimately drug-related, complicated by transient M.

A Single Argonaute Gene Participates in Exogenous and Endogenous RNAi and Controls Cellular Functions in the Basal Fungus Mucor circinelloides [PDF]
, 2013 The mechanism of RNAi is well described in metazoans where it plays a role in diverse cellular functions. However, although different classes of endogenous small RNAs (esRNAs) have been identified in fungi, their biological roles are poorly described due,

RNAi-Based Functional Genomics Identifies New Virulence Determinants in Mucormycosis [PDF]
, 2017 Mucorales are an emerging group of human pathogens that are responsible for the lethal disease mucormycosis. Unfortunately, functional studies on the genetic factors behind the virulence of these organisms are hampered by their limited genetic ...

Expression of active mucor miehei aspartic protease in Mucor circinelloides [PDF]
Carlsberg Research Communications, 1987 The gene encoding the aspartic protease in the mold Mucor miehei was isolated and a vector, pMA67, was constructed to allow expression of this gene in Mucor circinelloides. pMA67 contained the Amp gene for selection in E. coli, a Leu+ gene for selection in M. circinelloides and the M. miehei aspartic prepro-protease gene.

Mucor circinelloides: Growth, Maintenance, and Genetic Manipulation. [PDF]
Curr Protoc Microbiol, 2018 AbstractMucor circinelloides is a fungus that belongs to the order Mucorales. It grows as mold in the environment and can cause mucormycosis, a potentially fatal infection in immunocompromised patients. M. circinelloides is a biodiesel producer and serves as a model organism for studying several biological processes, such as light responses and RNA ...
