The eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 (eIF3) complex consists of essential and non-
essential sub-complexes. Non-essential eIF3 complex subunits, such as eIF3e, eIF3j, eIF3k …

Translation initiation factor eIF4E generally mediates the recognition of the 5'cap structure of
mRNA during the recruitment of the ribosomes to capped mRNA. Although the eIF4E has …

Primary inoculum that survives overwintering is one of the key factors that determine the
outbreak of plant disease. Pathogenic resting structures, such as chlamydospores, are an …

Eukaryotic cells respond to environmental stimuli when cell surface receptors are bound by
environmental ligands. The binding initiates a signal transduction cascade that results in the …

The devastating fungus Magnaporthe oryzae (M. oryzae) forms a specialized infection
structure known as appressorium, which generates enormous turgor, to penetrate the plant …

ABSTRACT ADP ribosylation factor (Arf) small GTPase family members are involved in
vesicle trafficking and organelle maintenance in organisms ranging from Saccharomyces …

Diseases caused by various pathogenic fungi pose a serious threat to global food security.
Despite their differences in life cycles, fungal pathogens use well-conserved genetic …

Protein phosphatases are critical regulators in eukaryotic cells. For example, the budding
yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae dual specificity protein phosphatase (DSP) ScYvh1 …

Blast disease caused by the hemibiotrophic ascomycete fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae is a
significant threat to sustainable rice production worldwide. Studies have shown that the blast …

During plant‐pathogenic fungi and host plants interactions, numerous pathogen‐derived
proteins are secreted resulting in the activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR) …
