The cell walls of many ascomycetous yeasts consist of an internal network of stress-bearing
polysaccharides, which serve as a scaffold for a dense external layer of glycoproteins. GPI …

The histidine phosphatase superfamily is a large functionally diverse group of proteins. They
share a conserved catalytic core centred on a histidine which becomes phosphorylated …

The cell wall proteins of Candida albicans play a key role in morphogenesis and
pathogenesis and might be potential target sites for new specific antifungal drugs. However …

Mature pollen from most plant species is metabolically quiescent; however, after pollination,
it germinates quickly and gives rise to a pollen tube to transport sperms into the embryo sac …

Classic cell wall components of fungi comprise the polysaccharides glucans and chitin, in
association with glycoproteins and pigments. During the last decade, however, system …

The human pathogenic yeast Candida albicans utilizes host complement regulators for
immune evasion. Here we identify the first fungal protein that binds Factor H and FHL-1. By …

The genus Saccharomyces currently includes eight species in addition to the model yeast
Saccharomyces cerevisiae, most of which can be consistently isolated from tree bark and …

Background Plant apoplast is the prime site for signal perception and defense response,
and of great importance in responding to environmental stresses. Hydrogen peroxide …

Although enolase, other glycolytic enzymes, and a variety of cytoplasmic proteins lacking an
N‐terminal secretion signal have been widely described as located at the cell surface in …

We identified non-covalently linked cell wall proteins from Paracoccidioides brasiliensis
yeasts and mycelia, with focus on the yeast pathogenic phase, and correlated them with …
