Reactive oxygen species suppress phagocyte surveillance by oxidizing cytoskeletal regulators

I. Ferling, S. Pfalzgraf, L. Moutounet, L. Qiu, I. Li, Y. Zhou, S. Grinstein, S. A. Freeman

This study shows that reactive oxygen species (ROS) from IgG-opsonized targets suppress phagocyte surveillance by oxidizing cytoskeletal regulators, leading to cell compaction and podosome disassembly.

Toxin-producing endosymbionts shield pathogenic fungus against micropredators

I. Richer, S. Radosa, Z. Cseresnyes, I. Ferling, H. Buettner, S. P. Niehs, R. Gerst, M. T. Figge, F. Hillmann, C. Hertweck

This study shows that rhizoxin, produced by a bacterial endosymbiont in the fungus Rhizopus microsporus, protects the fungus from protozoan and nematode predators.

Secreted TAL effectors protect symbiotic bacteria from entrapment within fungal hyphae

I. Richter, Z. Uzum, C. E. Stanley, N. Moebius, T. P. Stinear, S. S. Pidot, I. Ferling, F. Hillmann, C. Hertweck

The paper shows that BAT proteins from Burkholderia rhizoxinica prevent entrapment of endosymbionts in fungal hyphae, ensuring their survival and symbiosis.

Conidial melanin of the human pathogenic fungus Aspergillus fumigatus disrupts cell autonomous defenses in amoebae

I. Ferling, J. D. Dunn, A. Ferling, T. Soldati, F. Hillmann

This study shows that DHN-melanin on Aspergillus fumigatus conidia reduces phagocytosis by amoebae and delays phagolysosome maturation, enhancing fungal survival.
