Aspergillus fumigatus is a saprotrophic fungus; its primary habitat is the soil. In its ecological
niche, the fungus has learned how to adapt and proliferate in hostile environments. This …

To maintain iron homeostasis, fungi have to balance iron acquisition, storage, and utilization
to ensure sufficient supply and to avoid toxic excess of this essential trace element. As …

Iron is an essential trace element that is limiting in most habitats including hosts for fungal
pathogens. Siderophores are iron-chelators synthesized by most fungal species for high …

In pathogenic filamentous fungi, conidial germination not only is fundamental for
propagation in the environment but is also a critical step of infection. In the insect …

The eukaryotic multisubunit Elongator complex has been shown to perform multiple
functions in transcriptional elongation, histone acetylation and tRNA modification. However …

Iron is an essential element for all eukaryote organisms because of its redox properties,
which are important for many biological processes such as DNA synthesis, mitochondrial …

Iron is an essential micronutrient for virtually all eukaryotic organisms and plays a central
role during microbial infections. Invasive fungal diseases are associated with strikingly high …

The invertebrate Galleria mellonella has increasingly and widely been used in the last few
years to study complex host–microbe interactions. Aspergillus fumigatus is one of the most …

Recent studies have reported the anticancer activity of huaier extract in various human
malignancies. However, little is known about the effect of huaier extract in non‐small cell …

The maintenance of cellular calcium homeostasis in response to calcium supply is required
for a wide range of physiological processes in fungi, including growth, development, and …
