Abstract The P‐type ATPase CrpA is an important Cu2+/Cd2+ pump in the Aspergilli,
significantly contributing to the heavy metal stress tolerance of these ascomycetous fungi. As …

ABSTRACT Several P1B-type ATPases are important Cd2+/Cu2+ pumps in Aspergillus
species, and they are tightly associated with the heavy metal stress tolerance of these …

The physiological background of the unusually high cadmium tolerance (MIC50> 2 mM) of
Aspergillus fumigatus Af293 was investigated. The cadmium tolerance of the tested …

Copper homeostasis has been extensively studied in mammals, bacteria, and yeast, but it
has not been well-documented in filamentous fungi. In this report, we investigated the basis …

Cadmium is an exceptionally toxic industrial and environmental pollutant classified as a
human carcinogen. In order to provide insight into how we can keep our environment safe …

After dephosphorylation by the phosphatase calcineurin, the fungal transcription factor CrzA
enters the nucleus and activates the transcription of genes responsible for calcium …

Most of the metal transporters in Aspergillus fumigatus are yet uncharacterized. Their role in
fungal metabolism and virulence remains unclear. This paper describes the novel PIB-type …

Cadmium uptake and subcellular compartmentation in the ectomycorrhizal fungus Paxillus
involutus were investigated using radiotracer flux analyses. Concentration-dependent Cd2+ …

Characteristics of fungal species tolerant to high levels of metals in natural environment can
be amplified by isolation and selection of resistant mutants. Step-by-step culturing led to …

To investigate cation adaptation and homoeostasis in Aspergillus nidulans, two transcription-
factor-encoding genes have been characterized. The A. nidulans orthologue crzA of the …
