Maize diterpenoid sensing via Ste3 a-pheromone receptor and rapid germination of Colletotrichum graminicola oval conidia facilitating root infection

Anina Yasmin Rudolph, Carolin Schunke, Christoph Sasse…·Daniela Elisabeth Nordzieke

This study identifies diterpenoids as chemical attractants for C. graminicola oval conidia and shows that the CgSte3 receptor mediates their sensing, enabling root infection.

Molecular circuit between Aspergillus nidulans transcription factors MsnA and VelB to coordinate fungal stress and developmental responses

Emmanouil Bastakis, Jennifer Gerke, Şeyma Özkan…·Gerhard H. Braus

This study identifies a molecular circuit between MsnA and VelB in Aspergillus nidulans that coordinates stress responses with fungal development and secondary metabolism.

The Aspergillus nidulans velvet domain containing transcription factor VeA is shuttled from cytoplasm into nucleus during vegetative growth and stays there for sexual development, but has to return into cytoplasm for asexual development

Anja Strohdiek, Anna M. Köhler, Rebekka Harting…·Gerhard H. Braus

The paper shows that VeA, a fungal transcription factor, shuttles between the cytoplasm and nucleus during different developmental stages, with nuclear localization required for sexual development and cytoplasmic presence needed for asexual development.

The VelB intrinsically disordered domain promotes selective heterodimer formation of velvet domain regulatory proteins for fungal development

Anna M. Köhler, Sabine Thieme, Jennifer Gerke…·Gerhard H. Braus

The paper identifies the VelB intrinsically disordered domain's role in promoting selective heterodimer formation and regulating protein stability in fungal development.
