Filamentous fungi can secrete larger amounts of proteins, perform post-translational modifications such as glycosylation and disulfidation properly, and grow on a less expensive medium. Most filamentous fungi are transformed by plasmids that integrate into the fungal genome, suggesting potentially superior long-term stability of the fungal ...

General characteristics of the most common pathogenic filamentous and dimorphic fungi, along with some rare and emerging fungal etiologic agents of invasive disease, are described in this section.

2024年7月19日 · Filamentous fungi, distinguished by their thread-like structures and extensive colonies, play a pivotal role in various ecosystems. Their unique morphology and biochemical capabilities have made them a subject of intense study across multiple scientific fields.

2016年4月28日 · Filamentous Basidiomycetes (FBM) as Agents of Invasive Respiratory Disease. The FBM, colloquially called white moulds, have begun to gain importance lately, with systemic studies demonstrating the pathogenic potential of this group of fungi as agents of respiratory and systemic diseases.

2021年12月28日 · Processes and products employing filamentous fungi are increasing contributors to biotechnology. These organisms are used as cell factories for the synthesis of platform chemicals, enzymes, acids, foodstuffs and therapeutics. More recent applications include processing biomass into construction or textile materials.

2025年2月10日 · Abstract Filamentous fungi or mycelia are a valuable bioresource to produce several biomolecules and enzymes, especially because of their biodegradation potential and for their key role of enablers of a circular bioeconomy. Filamentous fungi can be grown in submerged cultivation to maximise the volumetric productivity of the bioprocess, instead of using the more …

Filamentous mycoses are often associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Prompt diagnosis and aggressive treatment are essential for good clinical outcomes in immunocompromised patients. The host immune response plays an essential role in determining the course of exposure to potential fun …

Filamentous fungi inhabit virtually all marine and terrestrial environments as free living microbes, symbionts, commensals, and pathogens [1,2]. This global colonization is dependent on their ability to secrete a diverse repertoire of protein, organic acid, and secondary metabolite molecules, which enable nutrient acquisition, growth of polar ...

Filamentous fungi are masters of both decomposition and biosynthesis, with metabolic versatilities that are unsurpassed in nature. They feed on plant residues from agriculture and forestry, and produce a diverse palette of products which are harnessed by the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, biofuel, textile, feed, automotive, packaging and ...

Filamentous fungi are known for their capacity to secret large amounts of different hydrolytic enzymes, which makes them the main provider of enzymes for lignocellulose hydrolysis. However, some species of filamentous fungi can also ferment a broad range of substrates and produce an array of metabolic products, including ethanol [35] .
