Heterologous Expression of MBP1 from C. ablicans in S. cerevisiae : a Nontraditional approach
(2010-04)Cases of hospital-acquired fungal infections, such as oropharyngeal candidiasis. Recent studies of ICU fungal infections consistently find C. albicans to be the predominant yeast species isolated. We have found MBP1 to be ... -
Heterologous Expression of MBP1 from C. albicans in S. cerevisiae.
(2009-04)The yeast species Candida albicans is the most commonly-isolated yeast in human disease. Systemic infections of C. albicans have emerged as important causes of morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients. To ... -
Isolation and Characterization of Regulators of Oxidative Stress-Induced Apoptosis in Yeast.
(2009-04)This project is a long-term project aimed at identifying possible mechanisms that connect the oxidative stress pathway to the apoptosis or cell death regulatory machinery in the budding yeast, S. cerevisiae. We have generated ... -
Localization of the C. albicans MBP1 Gene Product in S. cerevisiae
(2012-04)The pathogenic yeast species, Candida albicans, is responsible for a number of opportunistic oral and genital infections. Key to its pathogenicity is its ability to convert from yeast to hyphal form upon invasion of human ... -
Please Don't Fade Away : Rebooting a Robust Series of Organelle-Specific Fluourescence Probes for New Purposes
(2015-04)Our ultimate goal is to develop and license or market a specific set of probes which can be used to quantitatively and qualitatively monitor organelles, membrane domains, pH gradients and membrane potentials in live cells. -
Role of WD40 repeat proteins in the regulation of the Snf1 kinase complex during energy stress
(2024-08-01)The ability to respond to energy stress is critical to maintain energy homeostasis (balance) in living organisms. Protein kinases of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) family serve as master regulators of energy ...
