Allele-specific expression, natural antisense transcripts, and developmental gene expression, but not RNA editing or developmental hourglass, act in concert to shape the transcriptome during the fruiting body formation of complex multicellular fungi.

Codon optimization through biased synonymous substitutions is a characteristic feature of the genomes of generalist fungal parasites and is associated with the colonization of multiple hosts.

High cerebrospinal fluid tryptophan levels consistently predict increased mortality in HIV-infected and -uninfected patients in Vietnam and Indonesia.

A critical assessment of published microRNA/microRNA-like provides clues on features and conservation of these hairpin RNAs in fungi in addition to a centralized loci annotation resource for the community.

The dynamic transcription responses of the human fungal pathogen Candida glabrata during macrophage infection is revealed and a novel transcription factor important for the responses to macrophage, proliferation within macrophage, as well as anti-fungal drug resistance has been discovered.

Overexpression of interferon-stimulated genes revealed a role for RARRES3 in restricting growth of Toxoplasma gondii by inducing early egress from human cells.

Allorecognition in Neurospora crassa requires CWR-1 (cell wall remodeling protein), an essential process that ensures identity of an interconnected fungal syncytial colony and requires the CWR-1 polysaccharide monooxygenase domain, but not its catalytic activity.

How does a protein at the cell wall determine if a newly encountered fungus is safe to fuse with?

A new class of fungal hemoproteins is described that emphasizes the versatility of the Sec14-fold for translating binding of chemically distinct ligands to control of diverse sets of cellular activities.
