The mysterious route of sterols in oomycetes

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2021
Sterols are a class of lipids with essential roles in sustaining the domain structure of cell membranes and regulating biological processes [1]. Human health is affected by high cholesterol levels [2]; drugs preventing this are widely used. Also striking is the high demand for compounds classified as sterol biosynthesis inhibitors (SBIs), either as ...

How to be an oomycete

2023
Abstract Oomycetes are in the Stramenopiles group of protists and many are aggressive plant pathogens. Oomycetes grow as coenocytic hyphae creating mycelial networks. They can reproduce through long-lasting sexual oospores or asexual chlamydospores.

Population Structure of Oomycetes

1999
The class Oomycetes includes saprobes and pathogens of both plants and insects. However, the plant pathogens have been studied most intensively so will be the primary subject of this chapter. Important plant pathogens include Pythium, Phytophthora, and the Peronosporaceae, commonly known as the downy mildews.

Oomycete diseases.

2013
The most important oomycete forest pathogens comprise two genera: Pythium and the formidable genus Phytophthora, whose name appropriately means 'plant destroyer'. Pythium spp. cause seed and root rots and damping off diseases that thwart seedling establishment, and have been implicated in helping to drive forest diversity patterns through increased ...

Glucans of Oomycete Cell Walls

Science, 1967
The cell walls of selected oomycetous fungi are composed primarily of glucans, and cellulose constitutes a relatively small proportion of the total glucan. The noncellulosic constituents consist of acid-soluble glucan or glucans and insoluble glucan or glucans. These noncellulosic glucan fractions contain β-(1→3) glucosidic linkages and apparently β-(1→

Lactate Dehydrogenases in Oomycetes

Mycologia, 1972
Lactate dehydrogenases [D(-)-lactate: NAD oxidoreductase, E.C. 1.1.1.28] have recently been detected in a number of lower fungi particularly among the Oomycetes (Gleason and Price, 1969; Warren and Mullins, 1969; LeJohn, 1971) and the Chytridiomycetes (Gleason and Price, 1969; LeJohn, 1971).
