Fungome: Annotating proteins implicated in fungal pathogenesis
Sequencing genomes of different pathogenic fungi produced plethora of genetic information. This "omics" data might be of great interest to probe strain diversity, identify virulence factors and complementary genes in other fungal species, and importantly in predicting the role of proteins specific to pathogenesis in humans. We propose a component called "fungome" for those fungal proteins impli...
متن کاملRoles of Rack1 Proteins in Fungal Pathogenesis
Pathogenic fungi cause diseases on various organisms. Despite their differences in life cycles, fungal pathogens use well-conserved proteins and pathways to regulate developmental and infection processes. In this review, we focus on Rack1, a multifaceted scaffolding protein involved in various biological processes. Rack1 is well conserved in eukaryotes and plays important roles in fungi, though...
متن کاملCD8+ T cells implicated in the pathogenesis of allergic fungal rhinosinusitis
Fungi in paranasal sinuses are characteristic and considered a major pathogenic factor in a subset of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) patients, known as allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS). CD8(+) T cells are enriched in AFRS sinuses but their role in fungal-specific responses is unknown. Alternaria alternata- and Aspergillus fumigatus-specific T lymphocyte responses were investigated in 6 AFRS ...
متن کاملMetabolism in fungal pathogenesis.
Fungal pathogens must assimilate local nutrients to establish an infection in their mammalian host. We focus on carbon, nitrogen, and micronutrient assimilation mechanisms, discussing how these influence host-fungus interactions during infection. We highlight several emerging trends based on the available data. First, the perturbation of carbon, nitrogen, or micronutrient assimilation attenuate...
متن کاملProteins implicated in sperm capacitation.
Spermatozoa after being deposited in the female reproductive tract spend a considerable time in this foreign environment prior to fertilization of the oocyte. Chang and Austin independently observed1,2 that this time spent by the spermatozoa in the female tract is not consequential but a necessary event in the life cycle of the male gamete, and Austin2 first called this maturation period of spe...
