Background The genus Paracoccidioides comprises human thermal dimorphic fungi, which cause paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), an important mycosis in Latin America. Adaptation to environmental conditions is key fungal survival during host infection. adaptability of carbon metabolism a vital fitness attribute pathogenesis. Methodology/Principal Findings pathogen spp. exposed numerous adverse conditions, such as nutrient deprivation, the host. In this study, comprehensive response Paracoccidioides,...

Abstract The presence of myosin II and V in chromaffin cells their subcellular distribution is described. Myosin sucrose density gradients showed only a strong correlation between the secretory vesicle markers. Confocal microscopy images demonstrated colocalization with dopamine β‐hydroxylase, marker, whereas was present mainly cell cortex. Cell depolarization induced, Ca 2+ time‐dependent manner, dissociation from vesicles suggesting that this association not permanent but determined by...

Aim: During infection development in the host, Paracoccidioides spp. faces deprivation of micronutrients, a mechanism called nutritional immunity. This condition induces remodeling proteins present different metabolic pathways. Therefore, we attempted to identify membrane and their regulation by zinc lutzii. Materials & methods: Membranes enriched fraction yeast cells P. lutzii were isolated, purified identified 2D LC–MS/MS detection database search. Results conclusion: Zinc suppressed...

Abstract Centrosome duplication must remain coordinated with cell cycle progression to ensure the formation of a strictly bipolar mitotic spindle, but mechanisms that regulate this coordination are poorly understood. Previous work has shown prolonged S‐phase is permissive for centrosome duplication, prolonging either G 2 or M‐phase cannot support duplication. To examine whether 1 we release serum‐starved 0 cells into mimosine, which delays in . We find does occur, albeit slowly compared...

The genus Paracoccidioides is composed of thermal dimorphic fungi, causative agents paracoccidioidomycosis, one the most frequent systemic mycoses in Latin America. Mitochondria have sophisticated machinery for ATP production, which involves metabolic pathways such as citric acid and glyoxylate cycles, electron transport chain oxidative phosphorylation. In addition, this organelle performs a variety functions cell, working an exceptional signalling centre that contributes to cellular stress...

ABSTRACT The demand for food in the world grows year after due part to population growth, but also improvement of emerging markets. Brazil is one largest producers world. In 2017, its cereal, legume and oilseed crops totaled 238.6 million tons, 29.2% more than before. Much great increase productivity incorporation transgenic seeds, especially cotton, maize soybean, which possess genes that will plant’s adaptability harsh soil water conditions and, resistance pests, tolerance herbicides....

Abstract Myosin‐Va has been implicated in melanosome translocation, but the exact molecular mechanisms underlying this function are not known. In dilute , S91 melanoma cells, melanosomes move to cell periphery do accumulate tips of dendrites as occurs wild‐type B16 melanocytes; rather, they return and primarily at pericentrosomal region a microtubule‐dependent manner. Expression full‐length neuronal isoform myosin‐Va cells causes disperse, occupying cellular area approximately twice that...

Abstract This study presents data on myosin Va localization in the central nervous system of rainbow trout. We demonstrate, via immunoblots and immunocytochemistry, expression several neuronal populations forebrain, midbrain, hindbrain spinal cord. The that express trout constitute a very diverse group do not seem to have many specific similarities such as neurotransmitters used, cellular size or length their processes. intensity immunoreactivity number immunoreactive cells differ from...
