G protein α subunit suppresses sporangium formation through a serine/threonine protein kinase in Phytophthora sojae. [PDF]
Eukaryotic heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-binding proteins consist of α, β, and γ subunits, which act as molecular switches to regulate a number of fundamental cellular processes.

Involvement of a putative acyltransferase gene in sporangium formation in Actinoplanes missouriensis [PDF]
The actinomycete Actinoplanes missouriensis forms branched substrate mycelia during vegetative growth and produces terminal sporangia, each of which contains a few hundred spherical flagellated spores, from the substrate mycelia through short ...

Regulation of Sporangium Formation by BldD in the Rare Actinomycete Actinoplanes missouriensis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The rare actinomycete Actinoplanes missouriensis forms sporangia, including hundreds of flagellated spores that start swimming as zoospores after their release. Under conditions suitable for vegetative growth, zoospores stop swimming and germinate. A comparative proteome analysis between zoospores

A Novel FYVE Domain-Containing Protein Kinase, PsZFPK1, Plays a Critical Role in Vegetative Growth, Sporangium Formation, Oospore Production, and Virulence in Phytophthora sojae [PDF]
Proteins containing both FYVE and serine/threonine kinase catalytic (STKc) domains are exclusive to protists. However, the biological function of these proteins in oomycetes has rarely been reported.

Involvement of two putative gene clusters for exopolysaccharide biosynthesis and modification in sporangium formation in Actinoplanes missouriensis [PDF]
The terminal sporangium of the actinomycete Actinoplanes missouriensis contains a few hundred spores surrounded by a matrix substance, which is mainly composed of a polysaccharide synthesized by the imp gene cluster.

Components of the Clp complex are required for sporangium formation and dehiscence in Actinoplanes missouriensis [PDF]
The actinomycete Actinoplanes missouriensis forms terminal sporangia that contain a few hundred spores. When immersed in water, the sporangium opens to release spores, which start swimming using flagella, via a process referred to as sporangium ...

Regulation of Sporangium Formation, Spore Dormancy, and Sporangium Dehiscence by a Hybrid Sensor Histidine Kinase in Actinoplanes missouriensis: Relationship With the Global Transcriptional Regulator TcrA. [PDF]
Actinoplanes missouriensis goes through complex morphological differentiation, including formation of flagellated spore-containing sporangia, sporangium dehiscence, swimming of zoospores, and germination of zoospores to filamentous growth.

Lack of a Putative Intrinsically Disordered Protein Anchored to the Sporangiospore Cell Wall Causes Fragile Sporangium Formation in Actinoplanes missouriensis [PDF]
The filamentous actinomycete Actinoplanes missouriensis develops terminal sporangia on substrate mycelia via short sporangiophores. Each sporangium, surrounded by an outer envelope, contains a few hundred spores encapsulated by the sporangium matrix.

Class E sortase SrtE and two SrtE-dependent cell wall-anchored hydrophobic proteins are involved in morphogenesis in Actinoplanes missouriensis: occurrence of exploratory growth beyond genus Streptomyces [PDF]
The actinomycete Actinoplanes missouriensis grows by extending branched hyphae and forms terminal sporangia containing a few hundred spores. A sortase-dependent spore surface protein, SspA, has recently been shown to be important for sporangium ...

Engineering Biomimetic Sporangia in Land Plants [PDF]
The land plant sporangium is unique in its ability to initiate differentiation of the reproductive germ line, leading directly to meiosis and the formation of eggs and sperm; but our lack of understanding of the processes underlying gametogenesis in ...
