From High Protection to Lethal Effect: Diverse Outcomes of Immunization Against Invasive Candidiasis with Different Extracellular Vesicles.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) from can elicit immune responses, positioning them as promising acellular vaccine candidates. We characterized EVs from an avirulent cell wall mutant (Δ) and evaluated their protective potential against invasive candidiasis. EVs from the yeast (YEVs) and hyphal (HEVs) forms of the SC5314 wild-type strain were also tested, yielding high survival rates with SC5314 YEV (91%) and YEV immunization (64%).

a comprehensive view of the proteome.

We describe a new release of the PeptideAtlas proteomics spectral resource (build 2024-03), providing a sequence coverage of 79.5% at the canonical protein level, matched mass spectrometry spectra, and experimental evidence identifying 3382 and 536 phosphorylated serine and threonine sites with false localization rates of 1% and 5.3%, respectively.

Accounting for the impact of genotype and environment on variation in leaf respiration of wheat in Mexico and Australia.

An approach to improving radiation use efficiency (RUE) in wheat is to screen for variability in rates of leaf respiration in darkness (Rdark). We used a high-throughput system to quantify variation in Rdark among a diverse range of spring wheat genotypes (301 lines) grown in two countries (Mexico and Australia) and two seasons (2017 and 2018), and in doing so quantify the relative importance of genotype (G) and environment (E) in influencing variations in leaf Rdark. Through careful design, residual (unexplained) variation represented less than 10% of the total observed.
