Journal ArticleDOI
Ammonia fermentation, a novel anoxic metabolism of nitrate by fungi.
TL;DR: This fungus is the first eukaryotic, facultative anaerobe known to express one of three distinct metabolic energy mechanisms closely depending on environmental O2 tension, and it is showed that ammonia fermentation occurs in many other fungi that are common in soil, suggesting that facultativeAnaerobes are widely distributed among fungi that have been considered aerobic organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glycolytic suppression dramatically changes the intracellular metabolic profile of multiple cancer cell lines in a mitochondrial metabolism-dependent manner.
Reika Shiratori,Kenta Furuichi,Masashi Yamaguchi,Natsumi Miyazaki,Haruna Aoki,Hiroji Chibana,Kousei Ito,Shigeki Aoki +7 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that upon glycolytic suppression in multiple types of tumor cells, intracellular energy metabolism is reprogrammed toward mitochondrial OXPHOS in an autophagy-dependent manner to ensure cellular survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
Zernike phase contrast electron microscopy of ice-embedded influenza A virus.
TL;DR: Zernike phase contrast electron microscopy is a powerful tool for resolving the ultrastructure of viruses, because it enables high-contrast images of ice-embedded particles free of contrast transfer function artifacts that can be a problem in conventional cryo-electron microscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fungal Ammonia Fermentation, a Novel Metabolic Mechanism That Couples the Dissimilatory and Assimilatory Pathways of Both Nitrate and Ethanol: ROLE OF ACETYL CoA SYNTHETASE IN ANAEROBIC ATP SYNTHESIS *
Kazuto Takasaki,Hirofumi Shoun,Masashi Yamaguchi,Kanji Takeo,Akira Nakamura,Takayuki Hoshino,Naoki Takaya +6 more
TL;DR: The results showed that the fungus ferments ammonium via coupled dissimilatory and assimilatory mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Functional Analysis of the α-1,3-Glucan Synthase Genes agsA and agsB in Aspergillus nidulans: AgsB Is the Major α-1,3-Glucan Synthase in This Fungus

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the two AGS genes are dispensable in A. nidulans, but that AgsB is required for normal growth characteristics under liquid culture conditions and is the major AGS in this species.
