- Abstract:
- ... Sporothrix schenckii is the etiological agent of sporotrichosis, a mycosis of humans and other mammals. Little is known about the responses of this thermodimorphic pathogen to perturbations in the cell wall (CW) by different stress conditions. Here we describe the effect of Congo Red (CR) on the fungal growth, morphogenesis and activity of glucosamine-6-phosphate (GlcN-6-P) synthase. Under conditi ...

- Abstract:
- ... Cystobasidium keelungensis SN2ᵀ (CBS 6949 = BCRC 920080), a new anamorphic basidiomycetous yeast species, is described in this paper. The strains belonging to this species were isolated from the sea surface microlayer and underlying water in Taiwan. These strains were identified by examining nucleotide sequences in the species-specific D1/D2 domains of the large subunit (LSU) ribosomal RNA (rRNA) ...

- Abstract:
- ... Tetrahymena is a unicellular microbial eukaryotic organism that has been used extensively in toxicology and environmental research. This work attempts to model for the first time the wiring of proteins involved in cellular mechanisms of Cd toxicity in Tetrahymena thermophila. 1975 high-confidence PPIs between 68 Cd-binding proteins and 422 partners were inferred through a novel structural systems ...

- Abstract:
- ... Myo-inositol is a precursor of several membrane phospholipids and sphingolipids and plays a key role in gene regulation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae). Here, we tested whether H₂O₂ was affecting the levels of the inositol transporters and thus inositol uptake. In S. cerevisiae cells adapted to H₂O₂ Itr1–GFPp accumulated in the plasma membrane until 20 min, concomitantly with an inhibi ...
