Aspergillosis, candidiasis, and cryptococcosis are the most common cause of mycoses-
related disease and death among immune-compromised patients. Adhesins are cell-surface …

Interactions of human pathogenic fungi with the host tissues are key factors in the
pathogenesis of mycoses. Based on the concept that adherence of microorganisms is a …

Adhesion constitutes one of the initial stages of infection in microbial diseases and is
mediated by adhesins. Hence, identification and comprehensive knowledge of adhesins …

Adhesion is the foremost step in pathogenesis and biofilm formation and is facilitated by a
special class of cell wall proteins known as adhesins. Formation of biofilms in catheters and …

Understanding the pathogenesis of an infectious disease is critical for developing new
methods to prevent infection and diagnose or cure disease. Adherence of microorganisms to …

Pathogenic fungi must attach to human cells in order to gain a foothold for infection and
invasion. Epithelial cells in the gastrointestinal, genitourinary, or respiratory tracts express …

Background The availability of sequence data of human pathogenic fungi generates
opportunities to develop Bioinformatics tools and resources for vaccine development …

Bacterial and fungal adhesins mediate microbial aggregation, biofilm formation, and
adhesion to host. We divide these proteins into two major classes: professional adhesins …

Motivation: The adhesion of microbial pathogens to host cells is mediated by adhesins.
Experimental methods used for characterizing adhesins are time-consuming and demand …

Malaria caused by protozoan parasites belonging to the genus Plasmodium is a dreaded
disease, second only to tuberculosis. The emergence of parasites resistant to commonly …
