Transcriptional and proteomic responses to carbon starvation in Paracoccidioides. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
BACKGROUND: The genus Paracoccidioides comprises human thermal dimorphic fungi, which cause paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), an important mycosis in Latin America. Adaptation to environmental conditions is key to fungal survival during human host infection.

Negative immunodiffusion test results obtained with sera of paracoccidioidomycosis patients may be related to low-avidity immunoglobulin G2 antibodies directed against carbohydrate epitopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Immunodiffusion (ID) is the serologic test most frequently used for the diagnosis and posttherapy follow-up of patients with paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM).

Climate Change, Natural Disasters, and Cutaneous Fungal Infections

open access: yesInternational Journal of Dermatology, Volume 64, Issue 8, Page 1349-1355, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Fungal infections are an important source of morbidity and mortality that can manifest as superficial or invasive diseases. Diagnostic techniques for human fungal pathogens remain problematic, and multi‐drug resistance is emerging. This review addresses the potential emergence of new fungal pathogens in changing environments and reported ...

Molecular detection and identification of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 1997
Nearly 800 nucleotides from the 5' terminus of the 28S ribosomal gene of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis were sequenced, and a 14-base DNA probe specific for this species was identified. Hybridization results showed that the probe identified P. brasiliensis ribosomal DNA in a panel of ribosomal DNAs representing a total of 48 species of fungi.

Serology of paracoccidioidomycosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

A steric gate prevents mutagenic dATP incorporation opposite 8‐oxo‐deoxyguanosine in mitochondrial DNA polymerases

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 13, Page 3430-3448, July 2025.
Reactive oxygen species induce mutagenic DNA lesions, such as 8‐oxo‐2′‐deoxyguanosine (8‐oxodG), which acts as a template for dCMP and dAMP incorporation through its anti and syn conformations. Specific residues must regulate the fidelity of templated 8‐oxodG.

The taxonomy of two uncultivated fungal mammalian pathogens is revealed through phylogeny and population genetic analyses

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Ever since the uncultivated South American fungal pathogen Lacazia loboi was first described 90 years ago, its etiology and evolutionary traits have been at the center of endless controversies.

Paracoccidioides brasiliensis GP43-derived peptides are potent modulators of local and systemic inflammatory response [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 Study of Microbial Physiology Under Microoxic Conditions Is Critical but Neglected

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 3, June 2025.
Microbial physiology is mainly studied under aerobic or anaerobic/anoxic conditions, neglecting microbial behaviours in diverse microoxic conditions. The current article revisits the definition of microoxia in light of recent developments in oxygen‐sensing technology and emphasises the need to understand microbial physiology and growth behaviours of ...

Gene knockdown in Paracoccidioides brasiliensis using antisense RNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is a thermal dimorphic fungus which at host environment exhibits a multinucleated and multibudding yeast form. The cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying these phenotypes remain to be clarified, mostly due to the ...
