TL;DR: Results prove that human CD46 permits cells both to bind measles virus and to support infection and polyclonal antisera against CD46 inhibited virus binding and infection.

TL;DR: Glass DNA microarrays used to investigate the transcription profiles of 6333 predicted ORFs in cells undergoing this transition and their responses to changes in temperature and culture medium identified transcripts that are induced before germ tube initiation and shut off later in the developmental process.

TL;DR: It is proposed that CaCdc35p acts downstream of the Ras homologue CaRas1p and components of the hyphal-inducing MAP kinase pathway depend on the function of CaCDC35p in their ability to induce morphogenetic switching.

TL;DR: Improved annotation permitted a detailed analysis of several multigene families, and comparative genomic studies showed that C. albicans has a far greater catabolic range, encoding respiratory Complex 1, several novel oxidoreductases and ketone body degrading enzymes, malonyl- CoA and enoyl-CoA carriers, and numerous transporters to assimilate the resulting nutrients.

TL;DR: The results indicate that although Htm1p is not involved in processing of N‐linked oligosaccharides, it is required for their proteolytic degradation, and it is proposed that this mannosidase homolog is a lectin that recognizes Man8GlcNAc2 oligosACcharides that serve as signals in the degradation pathway.
