WdChs2p, a Class I Chitin Synthase, Together with WdChs3p (Class III) Contributes to Virulence in Wangiella ( Exophiala ) dermatitidis

, 2001
The chitin synthase structural gene WdCHS2 was isolated by screening a subgenomic DNA library of Wangiella dermatitidis by using a 0.6-kb PCR product of the gene as a probe. The nucleotide sequence revealed

Intracellular Location of Carotenoid Pigments in Yeast-Phase Cells of Wangiella Dermatitidis and Cell Wall Morphology After Enzyme Treatment [PDF]

, 1991
Carotenoid pigments in W. dermatitidis, the first pathogenic, dematiaceous fungus in which carotenoid pigments nave been reported, are located primarily (81%) in lipid organelles which floated on the surface of the supernatant fraction of lysed cells ...

Pathogenicity of a fungus resembling Wangiella dermatitidis isolated from edible mushrooms [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1986
A fungus resembling the human pathogen Wangiella dermatitidis (Kano) McGinnis, a dematiaceous hyphomycete, was recovered from imported desiccated "black fungus" mushrooms (Auricularia polytrichia (Mont.) Sacc.), a food item popular in Far Eastern cuisine.

WdChs5p of Wangiella (Exophiala) dermatitidis, a class V chitin synthase, is essential for sustained cell growth at temperature of infection

, 2003
The chitin synthase structural gene, WdCHS5 was isolated from Wangiella dermatitidis. Sequence analysis revealed that this gene has a myosin motor-like-encoding region at its 5′-end and a chitin synthase (class V)-encoding region at its 3′-end.

Molecular genetic studies of the model dematiaceous pathogen Wangiella dermatitidis

International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2002
The rapidly improving molecular genetic tractability of Wangiella (Exophiala) dermatitidis significantly enhances its usefulness as a model for the more than 100 other dematiaceous (melanized) agents of human disease. Previously this model was based almost exclusively on its vegetative polymorphism, which at the simplest level is expressed as three ...
