Glucans are the most abundant polysaccharides in the cell walls of fungi, and their
structures are highly variable. Accordingly, their glucose moieties may be joined through …

Eukaryotic cells display a wide range of morphologies important for cellular function and
development. A particular cell shape is made via the generation of asymmetry in the …

Fungal Cell Wall presents a comprehensive examination of the structure, synthesis, and
growth of the fungal cell wall and explores the reasons for the cell wall's importance to the …

The cell wall (CW) is the outermost layer of fungi and other organisms. It exhibits a dynamic
structure and a characteristic chemical composition consisting almost entirely of interacting …

Rho GTPases are signalling molecules regulating morphology and multiple cellular
functions including metabolism and vesicular trafficking. To understand the connection …

Glucans are characteristic and major constituents of fungal cell walls. Depending on the
species, different glucan polysaccharides can be found. These differ in the linkage of the d …

mRNA half-lives are transcript-specific and vary over a range of more than 100-fold in
eukaryotic cells. mRNA stabilities can be regulated by sequence-specific RNA-binding …

The cell wall is a structure external to the plasma membrane that is essential for the survival
of the fungi. This polysaccharidic structure confers resistance to the cell internal turgor …
