Hydrophobins are small secreted cysteine-rich proteins exclusively found in fungi. They are
able to self-assemble in single molecular layers at hydrophobic-hydrophilic interfaces and …

Differential screening of a cDNA library was used to clone genes that are specifically
expressed during mushroom development in the basidiomyceteAgaricus bisporus. One of …

Hydrophobins (HPs) are relatively small surface-active proteins of fungal origin. Being an
industrially important protein, isolation of new molecules from GRAS (Generally Regarded …

Background Hydrophobins are small secreted cysteine-rich proteins that play diverse roles
during different phases of fungal life cycle. In basidiomycetes, hydrophobin-encoding genes …

Two closely related cysteine-rich hydrophobic proteins, Sc3p and Sc4p, of the
basidiomycete Schizophyllum commune are developmentally regulated and associated with …

Hydrophobins are morphogenetic proteins produced by fungi during assembly of aerial
hyphae, sporulation, mushroom development and pathogenesis. Eight cysteine residues are …

Hydrophobins are small fungal proteins that self-assemble spontaneously at hydrophilic–
hydrophobic interfaces and change the polar nature of the surfaces to which they attach. A …

Fungi are well known to the casual observer for producing water-repelling aerial moulds and
elaborate fruiting bodies such as mushrooms and polypores. Filamentous fungi colonize …

Disruption of the SC3 hydrophobin gene of Schizophyllum commune (ΔSC3 strain) affected
the composition of the cell wall. Compared to a wild-type strain the amount of mucilage (ie …

Hydrophobins, which are small-secreted proteins with both hydrophobic and hydrophilic
parts, can self-assemble into an amphiphilic film at the air-water interface, helping the …
