Lipases and phospholipases are interfacial enzymes that hydrolyze hydrophobic ester
linkages of triacylglycerols and phospholipids, respectively. In addition to their role as …

Aspergillus fumigatus is an opportunistic pathogen that causes 90% of invasive aspergillosis
(IA) due to Aspergillus genus, with a 50–95% mortality rate. It has been postulated that …

The Group IV phospholipase A2 family is comprised of six intracellular enzymes commonly
called cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) α, cPLA2β, cPLA2γ, cPLA2δ, cPLA2ε and …

Aspergillus fumigatus causes a wide range of diseases that include mycotoxicosis, allergic

Bioaerosols generated at composting plants are released during processes that involve the
vigorous movement of material such as shredding, compost pile turning, or compost …

The passive and active release of bioaerosols during green waste composting, measured at
source is reported for a commercial composting facility in South East (SE) England as part of …

Fungal infections represent a major, albeit neglected, public health threat with serious
medical and economic burdens globally. With unacceptably high mortality rates, invasive …

Phospholipases are ubiquitous enzymes that hydrolyze phospholipids. Based on the
cleavage site of the ester linkage in the substrate phospholipids, phospholipases are …

Many pathogenic microbes, including many fungi, produce phospholipases which facilitate
survival of the pathogen in vivo, invasion and dissemination throughout the host, expression …

As saprophytes or disease causing microorganisms, fungi acquire nutrients from dead
organic material or living host organisms. Lipids as structural components of cell …
