Detection of the basement membrane-degrading proteolytic activity of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis after SDS-PAGE using agarose overlays containing Abz-MKALTLQ-EDDnp [PDF]
, 1999 We have characterized, in the Paracoccidioides brasiliensis yeast phase, an exocellular SH-dependent serine proteinase activity against Abz-MKRLTL-EDDnp and analogous fluorescent-quenched peptides, and showed that it is also active against constituents ...

Random sequencing ofParacoccidioides brasiliensisgenes [PDF]
Medical Mycology, 2005 Paracoccidioides brasiliensis genome has been reported as having a size of about 30 Mb. By digestion of genomic DNA from strain IVICPb 73 (ATCC 32071), we have constructed a DNA library with an insert size average of 8 kb in Escherichia coli XL1 Blue.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2015 BackgroundHypoxic microenvironments are generated during fungal infection. It has been described that to survive in the human host, fungi must also tolerate and overcome in vivo microenvironmental stress conditions including low oxygen tension; however ...

Serology of paracoccidioidomycosis [PDF]
, 2008 This review provides the background for understanding the role of a battery of diagnostic methods in paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). This systemic mycosis is a disease endemic in many regions of Latin America, with sporadic cases also occurring throughout ...

Tropical Medicine &International Health, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To analyse mortality, hospitalisations and in‐hospital mortality related to paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) in Brazil, 2000–2024, from a spatio‐temporal and social inequalities perspective. Methods We conducted a mixed ecological study using death certificates from the Mortality Information System and hospital admissions from the ...

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 5, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by Aspergillus fumigatus play key roles in fungal–host communication. Similar to synthetic nanoparticles, fungal EVs acquire a biomolecular corona composed of a tightly bound “hard” corona layer of fungal proteins and a dynamic “soft” layer of host‐derived molecules adsorbed upon contact with biological ...

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis GP43-derived peptides are potent modulators of local and systemic inflammatory response [PDF]
, 2012 Paracoccidioidomycosis is a systemic granulomatous disease caused by the dimorphic fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. Its major antigen is a 43 kDa glycoprotein whose peptides embody different functions: P10 peptide, a T-cell epitope, :induces ...

The Hemoprotein Hhy1 Promotes Heme‐Dependent Catalase Activity of Ctt1
Molecular Microbiology, Volume 125, Issue 5, Page 389-411, May 2026.A Schizosaccharomyces pombe strain deficient in heme (hem1Δ) and siderophore (Fc) biosynthesis, as well as high‐affinity iron (Fe) uptake (blue), was used to uncover the hemoprotein Hhy1 that promotes the heme‐dependent activity of the catalase Ctt1. In contrast, hhy1Δ cells exhibit reduced Ctt1 activity and increased sensitivity to oxidative stress ...

Diversity in Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. the PbGP43 gene as a genetic marker [PDF]
, 2008 Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is a temperature-dependent dimorphic fungus and the agent of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), which is prevalent in rural workers of Latin American countries. Until a decade ago, most of the studies involving P.
