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 ...

CRISPR-Cas9 genome editing approaches in filamentous fungi and oomycetes

open access: yesFungal Genetics and Biology, 2019
Due to their biotechnological relevance as well as their importance as disease agents, filamentous fungi and oomycetes have been prime candidates for genetic selection and in vitro manipulation for decades.

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.

The Mammalian Pathogenic Oomycetes

Current Fungal Infection Reports, 2013
The oomycetes are fungal-like microbes similar to those found within some members of the kingdom Fungi. Although these two groups of microbes share morphological features, there are several contrasting differences: a) phylogenetic analysis placed the oomycetes basal to plants and green algae; b) oomycetes lack ergosterol in their cytoplasmic membrane ...

Exoproteinases of the Oomycete Phytophthora infestans

Applied Biochemistry and Microbiology, 2004
When grown in a medium containing heat-stable potato tuber proteins, the oomycete Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary produces a set of exoproteinases active at neutral and mildly basic pH values. These extracellular proteinases have been shown by SDS-PAGE with the presence of gelatin to include at least six components differing in molecular weight.

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).

Recent advances in oomycete genomics

2020
The oomycetes are a class of ubiquitous, filamentous microorganisms that include some of the biggest threats to global food security and natural ecosystems. Within the oomycete class are highly diverse species that infect a broad range of animals and plants. Some of the most destructive plant pathogens are oomycetes, such as Phytophthora infestans, the
