Fungal antigenic variation using mosaicism and reassortment of subtelomeric genes' repertoires, potentially mediated by DNA triplexes

C. S. Meier, M. Pagni, S. Richard, K. Muhlethaler, J. M. G. C. F. Almeida, G. Nevez, M. T. Cushion, E. J. Calderon, P. M. Hauser

This paper identifies a novel mechanism of antigenic variation in Pneumocystis jirovecii involving DNA triplex-mediated recombination of subtelomeric genes.

Candida albicans commensalism in the oral mucosa is favoured by limited virulence and metabolic adaptation .

C. Lemberg, K. Martinez de San Vicente, R. Frois-Martins, S. Altmeier, V. D. T. Tran, S. Amorim-Vaz, L. Rai, C. d'Enfert, M. Pagni, D. Sangalrd, S. LeibundGut-Landmann

This study identifies factors enabling Candida albicans to maintain a commensal lifestyle in the oral mucosa by reducing virulence and adapting metabolically.

Investigating unexplained genetic variation and its expression in the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Rhizophagus irregularis

F. G. G. Masclaux, T. Wyss, M. Pagni, P. Rosikiewicz, I. R. Sanders

The paper investigates genetic variation in Rhizophagus irregularis, finding that heterokaryon isolates show transcribed bi-allelic sites matching genome data, while homokaryons show little such transcription.

Dictyostelium discoideum flotillin homologues are essential for phagocytosis and participate in plasma membrane recycling and lysosome biogenesis

C. Bosmani, F. Bach, F. Leuba, N. Hanna, F. Burdet, M. Pagni, M. Hagedorn, T. Soldati

This study identifies vacuolins in Dictyostelium discoideum as functional homologues of flotillins, essential for phagocytosis, membrane recycling, and lysosome biogenesis.

Mechanisms of surface antigenic variation in the human pathogenic fungus Pneumocystis jirovecii

E. Schmid-Siegert, S. Richard, A. Luraschi, K. Muehlethaler, M. Pagni, P. Hauser

This study identifies mechanisms of surface antigenic variation in Pneumocystis jirovecii using long-read sequencing and PCR, revealing gene family diversification and telomere-linked recombination.

Low Rate of Somatic Mutations in a Long-Lived Oak Tree

N. Sarkar, E. Schmid-Siegert, C. Iseli, S. Calderon, C. Gouhier-Darimont, J. Chrast, P. Cattaneo, F. Schutz, L. Farinelli, M. Pagni, M. Schneider, J. Voumard, M. Jaboyedoff, C. Fankhauser, C. S. Hardtke, , P. Reymond

The paper sequenced two branches of a 234-year-old oak tree and found few somatic mutations, suggesting shoot meristems are mutation-resistant.
