This study identifies novel cell wall-associated genes in Cryptococcus neoformans that mask β-1,3-glucan and enable evasion of dectin-1 immune recognition.

This study develops a hyphal-dispersion mutant of Aspergillus oryzae with reduced hyphal adhesion and improved enzyme production and bioreactor performance.

This study compares the properties of amorphous and rodlet films formed by hydrophobin RolA, finding that rodlet films are more rigid and functional for conidia surface properties.

This study stratifies SARS-CoV-2 viral shedding patterns in saliva into three groups with distinct durations using a mathematical model and clustering, but finds no clear clinical or miRNA biomarkers explaining the differences.
