Bath Fungal Research: Hsp90 in Dimorphic Fungi
http://fungalresearch.blogspot.com/2013/06/hsp90-in-dimorphic-fungi.html
Publications for D.A. Henk. Publications for S. Diezmann. Friday, 21 June 2013. Hsp90 in Dimorphic Fungi. Dimorphic fungi are curious because they change their looks depending on the outside temperature. At 25˚C, some of these fungi grow as filaments, which are long, elongated cells forming thickets if fungi. At 37˚C, these very same fungi grow as unicellular yeast, resembling the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Even at low temperatures and Hsp90 is one of the larger Hsps. Unfortunately, only...

Bath Fungal Research: June 2013

Publications for D.A. Henk. Publications for S. Diezmann. Friday, 28 June 2013. Chaperone Paper of the Month – June 2013. It’s back to small chaperones. After I previously wrote about Hsp21’s role in Candida albicans. Virulence and stress adaptation, it is getting now even smaller (and shorter because I am on vacation). Is one of the smallest heat shock proteins and was originally described as a phase-specific protein in C. albicans. Can be distributed through the bloodstream and thus regulation by CO.

Bath Fungal Research: It's Complicated - Candida's Commensal Life Style is Triggered by the Host
http://fungalresearch.blogspot.com/2013/08/its-complicated-candidas-commensal-life.html
Publications for D.A. Henk. Publications for S. Diezmann. Friday, 16 August 2013. It's Complicated - Candida's Commensal Life Style is Triggered by the Host. One of the most puzzling questions in Candida albicans. Biology concerns its ability to switch from being an innocuous member of the human microbiome to being a deadly microbe once the host's immune system malfunctions. While the human body is the yeast. S natural niche, C. albicans. Is usually at home in rotting plants. How does C. albicans. Is cru...

Bath Fungal Research: Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Steph Weiss
http://fungalresearch.blogspot.com/2013/07/saccharomyces-cerevisiae-and-steph-weiss.html
Publications for D.A. Henk. Publications for S. Diezmann. Friday, 5 July 2013. Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Steph Weiss. For this months ‘Fungi and Food’ blog. After all, Germans consider beer liquid bread. Beer is made by the brewer’s yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Which is a unicellular fungus that turns sugar into alcohol. It was probably these fermentative powers that paved S. cerevisiae. Contained residues of a fermented beverage made of fruit, honey and rice. Since S. cerevisiae. 8216;stimulated&#...

Publications for D.A. Henk. Publications for S. Diezmann. Friday, 26 July 2013. Chaperone of the Month – Taking Hsp90 for a Stroll Down Memory Lane. So, I decided to take Candida albicans. Fun fact, it looks like Hsp90 was discovered several times. As a point of reference, the commonly cited Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Paper regarding Hsp90’s original discovery was published in 1989. Borkovich et al. showed that Hsp90 is essential and that S. cerevisiae. In 1984, Dabrowa and Howard. Shifted cells in YNB Gl...

Publications for D.A. Henk. Publications for S. Diezmann. Wednesday, 29 August 2012. The fungus that pictured on the background image of this blog) still seems to be gaining steam as a possibly emerging and/or frequently mis- or undiagnosed pathogen in incompetent humans ( see my previous hacky post about this. In another paper out in the Journal of Medical Microbiology, Geramizadeh et al. report 14 more cases over the last decade in southern Iran. But we have also found that Basidiobolus. I think it is ...

Publications for D.A. Henk. Publications for S. Diezmann. Monday, 7 May 2012. Wow The JGI is just pouring fungal genomes into their Mycocosm. I assume that this is part of the 1000 Fungal Genomes. Effort, but it is wildly far reaching and fast accruing. Besides all of the species that have been targeted, they have apparently sequenced a species, Penicillium chrysogenum. Wednesday, 2 May 2012. Ploidy variation in a plant pathogen? I found this ( DOI:. Genome to go along with the genome from P. rubens.
