“Is This Edible Anyway?” The Impact of Culture on the Evolution (and Devolution) of Mushroom Knowledge

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Mushrooms are a ubiquitous and essential component in our biological environment and have been of interest to humans around the globe for millennia. Knowledge about mushrooms represents a prime example of cumulative culture, one of the key processes in human evolution.

Identification of natural inhibitors targeting trehalase of Anopheles funestus in the management of malaria: A Biocomputational assessment

Journal of Vector Borne Diseases
Background & objectives: Anopheles funestus is playing an increasingly important role in malaria transmission in sub-Saharan Africa. Trehalase, an enzyme required for trehalose breakdown, is important for mosquito flight and stress adaptation. Hence, its

Comparison of gut morphology and distribution of trehalase activity in the gut of wood-feeding and fungus-growing termites (Isoptera: Termitidae)

European Journal of Entomology, 2017
Termites are important decomposer due to their ability to digest cellulose and their diverse feeding habits. Trehalase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes trehalose to glucose in insects and has an important biological role.

The Associations of Sucrase‐Isomaltase Hypomorphic Variants With Long‐Term Outcomes and Dietary Intake in an Australian Irritable Bowel Syndrome Population Educated on the FODMAP Diet: A Cross‐Sectional and Retrospective Study

United European Gastroenterology Journal, Volume 14, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Hypomorphic variants of sucrase‐isomaltase (SI) have been associated with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in adults, but how their presence influences therapeutic outcomes is uncertain. Aims To investigate the frequency of sucrase‐isomaltase hypomorphic variants in patients with IBS and their association with short‐ and long‐term ...

Discovery of diphenyl ethers as novel inhibitors of insect trehalase via virtual screening and biological assays

Advanced Agrochem
Trehalase hydrolyzes trehalose to glucose to provide energy for insects or building blocks for chitin synthesis. Because trehalase is critical to insects but not to humans, it has long been considered a promising target for green insecticides.

Trehalase Deficiency in a Family

Gastroenterology, 1973
A 24-year-old white man was admitted to University Hospital in Plzen with vomiting and diarrhea, which resulted from the ingestion of mushrooms. He became asymptomatic within 24 hr. Mushroom intolerance was also present in the patient’s father, uncle, and two cousins. Small bowel biopsy, histological examination, and intestinal disaccharidases activity

Potential 14‐3‐3 binding sites in sirtuins reveal extended phosphosite‐recognition modes

Acta Crystallographica Section F, Volume 82, Issue 1, Page 32-40, January 2026.
Identification, binding measurements and structure determination of human sirtuin phosphopeptides in complex with human adapter protein 14‐3‐3σ reveal variations among tight binders and suggest extended binding modes.The adapter proteins of the 14‐3‐3 family modulate the activity and/or localization of their binding partners, which they capture if a ...

Mycelial dynamics in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 691-713, January 2026.
Summary Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), similar to other filamentous fungi, develop extensive hyphal networks collectively known as mycelia. AMF mycelia are complemented by a variety of specialized structures such as spores, vesicles, and auxiliary cells, which together form integrated and functionally diverse AMF networks.
