This study shows Ubp3 dynamically regulates mitochondrial ubiquitination during mitophagy, revealing its role in ubiquitin storage and release as a stress response mechanism.

The paper shows that the PPIP5K enzyme Asp1 produces opposite effects on fungal morphology and actin organization in different species, depending on the host cellular environment.

This study develops blue-light inducible gene expression switches to control morphogenesis and pathogenesis in Ustilago maydis, demonstrating their utility in regulating fungal invasion and tumor formation.

This study shows that endosomal mRNA transport coordinates mitochondrial bioenergetics in fungal hyphae, with Rrm4 essential for mitochondrial protein import and function.

This study identifies ZCF15 and ZCF26 as biofilm regulators in Candida albicans that modulate metabolic reprogramming during the planktonic-to-biofilm transition.
