The plasma membrane (PM) performs a plethora of physiological processes, the
coordination of which requires spatial and temporal organization into specialized domains of …

There is growing appreciation that the plasma membrane orchestrates a diverse array of
functions by segregating different activities into specialized domains that vary in size …

The eukaryotic plasma membrane is compartmentalized into domains enriched in specific
lipids and proteins. However, our understanding of the molecular bases and biological roles …

Aspergillus fumigatus and multiple other Aspergillus species cause a wide range of lung
infections, collectively termed aspergillosis. Aspergilli are ubiquitous in environment with …

Eisosomes are membrane furrows at the cell surface of yeast that have been shown to
function in two seemingly distinct pathways, membrane stress response and regulation of …

Quiescence is a common cellular state, required for stem cell maintenance and
microorganismal survival under stress conditions or starvation. However, the mechanisms …

One of the best characterized fungal membrane microdomains is the MCC/eisosome. The
MCC (membrane compartment of Can1) is an evolutionarily conserved ergosterol-rich …

Eisosomes are large hemitubular structures that underlie the invaginated microdomains in
the plasma membrane of various ascomycetous fungi, lichens and unicellular algae. In …

Mycoparasites, eg fungi feeding on other fungi, are prominent within the genus Trichoderma
and represent a promising alternative to chemical fungicides for plant disease control. We …

Sphingolipids are essential building blocks of eukaryotic membranes and important
signaling molecules that are regulated tightly in response to environmental and …
