No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2015-01-01; Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq); Here, we present the draft genome sequence of Komagataeibacter intermedius strain AF2, which was isolated from Kombucha tea and is capable of producing cellulose, although at lower levels compared to another bacterium from the same en...
Draft genome sequence of Wickerhamomyces anomalus LBCM1105, isolated from cacha...
Cunha, Aureliano C.; Santos, Renato A Corrêa Dos; Riaño-Pachon, Diego M.; Squina, Fábio M.; Oliveira, Juliana V. C.; Goldman, Gustavo H.Wickerhamomyces anomalus LBCM1105 is a yeast isolated from cachaça distillery fermentation vats, notable for exceptional glycerol consumption ability. We report its draft genome with 20.5x in-depth coverage and around 90% extension and completeness. It harbors the sequences of proteins involved in glycerol transport and metabolism.
The Aspergillus fumigatus Mismatch Repair MSH2 Homolog Is Important for Virulen...
Dos Reis, Thaila Fernanda; Silva, Lilian Pereira; de Castro, Patrícia Alves; do Carmo, Rafaela Andrade; Marini, Marjorie MendesThe genetic stability of every living organism depends on accurate DNA replication and repair systems. Here, we investigated the Aspergillus fumigatusMSH2 mismatch repair (MMR) gene MshA and how it impacts virulence and the evolution of azole resistance. We examined mshA gene variation in 62 environmental and clinical A. fumigatus strains. We have observed 12 strains with variants (18.2%), and 8 strains among t...
Ploidy determination in the pathogenic fungus Sporothrix spp.
Ferreira, Beatriz H.; Ramírez-Prado, Jorge H.; Neves, Gabriela W. P.; Torrado, Egídio; Sampaio, Paula; Felipe, Maria Sueli S.; Vasconcelos, Ana TerezaThe pathogenic clade of the Sporothrix genus comprises the etiological agents of sporotrichosis, a worldwide emergent disease. Despite the growing understanding of their successful pathogen traits, there is little information on genome sizes and ploidy within the genus. Therefore, in this work, we evaluated the ploidy of four species of the Sporothrix genus, specifically Sporothrix brasiliensis, Sporothrix sche...

The Aspergillus nidulans pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases are essential to integr...
Ries, Laure Nicolas Annick; Assis, Leandro José de; Rodrigues, Fernando José dos Santos; Caldana, Camila; Rocha, Marina Campos; Malavazi, IranThe pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDH), that converts pyruvate to acetyl-coA, is regulated by pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases (PDHK) and phosphatases (PDHP) that have been shown to be important for morphology, pathogenicity and carbon source utilization in different fungal species. The aim of this study was to investigate the role played by the three PDHKs PkpA, PkpB and PkpC in carbon source utilization in th...

The Aspergillus fumigatus CrzA Transcription Factor Activates Chitin Synthase G...
Ries, Laure Nicolas Annick; Rocha, Marina Campos; de Castro, Patrícia Alves; Silva-Rocha, Rafael; Silva, Roberto Nascimento; Freitas, Fernanda ZanolliMade available in DSpace on 2018-12-11T16:49:34Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2017-06-13; Aspergillus fumigatus is an opportunistic fungal pathogen that causes invasive aspergillosis (IA), a life-threatening disease in immunocompromised humans. The echinocandin caspofungin, adopted as a second-line therapy in combating IA, is a β-1,3-glucan synthase inhibitor, which, when used in high concen...

Editorial: An omics perspective on fungal Infection: toward next-generation dia...
Carvalho, Agostinho Albérico Rodrigues; Goldman, Gustavo H.[Excerpt] Fungal infections are estimated to occur in over a billion people each year, and evidence suggests the rate is increasing. Vaccines are unavailable, and despite progress in diagnosis and therapy, the management of fungal infections is a challenging endeavor associated with unacceptable mortality rates, particularly in immunocompromised hosts (Kontoyiannis et al., 2010; Pagano et al., 2010). Importantl...
