N-terminal intrinsically disordered region mediates self-catalytic interfacial nucleation of Aspergillus oryzae hydrophobin RolA

Nao Takahashi, Natsuki Abe, Takuya Mabuchi, Mao Fukuyama, Yuki Terauchi, Takumi Tanaka, Akira Yoshimi, Hiroshi Yabu, Keietsu Abe

This study identifies the N-terminal intrinsically disordered region of RolA as critical for self-catalytic interfacial nucleation during rodlet formation.

Amorphous-to-Rodlet Structural Transition Governs the Interfacial Functions of Aspergillus oryzae Hydrophobin RolA

Daiki Ida, Nao Takahashi, Yuki Terauchi, Takumi Tanaka, Akira Yoshimi, Hirotaka Kobayashi, Ken Miyazawa, Masaya Mitsuishi, Hiroshi Yabu, Keietsu Abe

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.

High-speed atomic force microscopy reveals surface-catalyzed elongation mechanism of fungal functional amyloid, hydrophobin RolA

Nao Takahashi, Tatsuya Kimura, Yuki Terauchi, Takumi Tanaka, Natsuki Abe, Akira Yoshimi, Takahiro Watanabe‐Nakayama, Keietsu Abe

This study uses high-speed atomic force microscopy to reveal the surface-catalyzed elongation mechanism of hydrophobin RolA, showing how rodlet bundling facilitates hierarchical structure formation.
