Shining a Light on an Opportunistic Pathogen [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 2010
The surface of our planet is subjected to dramatic changes in levels of solar radiation on a daily basis. Sunlight is the direct energy source for photosynthetic organisms and is the foundation of most of the food chains that support heterotrophs like ourselves.

Approaching the secrets of N-glycosylation in Aspergillus fumigatus [PDF]

, 2010
The mannosyltransferase Och1 is the key enzyme for synthesis of elaborated protein N-glycans in yeast. In filamentous fungi genes implicated in outer chain formation are present, but their function is unclear.

Microbiome analysis of healthy and diseased sponges Lubomirskia baicalensis by using cell cultures of primmorphs [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
Endemic sponges (Demosponges, Lubomirskiidae) dominate the fauna of the littoral zone of Lake Baikal. These freshwater sponges live in symbiosis with diverse eukaryotes and prokaryotes, including chlorophyll-containing microalgae. Within the last 5 years,

A Novel Virulence Phenotype Rapidly Assesses Candida Fungal Pathogenesis in Healthy and Immunocompromised Caenorhabditis elegans Hosts

mSphere, 2019
The yeast Candida albicans is an opportunistic pathogen of humans, meaning that despite commensal interactions with its host, it can transition to a harmful pathogen. While C.

Opportunistic pathogens enriched in showerhead biofilms [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009
The environments we humans encounter daily are sources of exposure to diverse microbial communities, some of potential concern to human health. In this study, we used culture-independent technology to investigate the microbial composition of biofilms inside showerheads as ecological assemblages in the human indoor environment.
