Chan C, El-Kirat-Chatel S, Joseph I, Jackson D, Ramsook C, Dufrene Y, et al.
mSphere
. 2016 Aug;
1(4).
PMID: 27547825
Many fungal adhesins have short, β-aggregation-prone sequences that play important functional roles, and in the Candida albicans adhesin Als5p, these sequences cluster the adhesins after exposure to shear force. Here,...

ACS Nano
. 2012 Aug;
6(9):7703-11.
PMID: 22924880
Bacterial and fungal species produce some of the best-characterized functional amyloids, that is, extracellular fibres that play key roles in mediating adhesion and biofilm formation. Yet, the molecular details underlying...

Lipke P, Garcia M, Alsteens D, Ramsook C, Klotz S, Dufrene Y
Trends Microbiol
. 2011 Nov;
20(2):59-65.
PMID: 22099004
Budding yeasts adhere to biotic or abiotic surfaces and aggregate to form biofilms, using wall-anchored glycoprotein adhesins. The process is paradoxical: adhesins often show weak binding to specific ligands, yet...

Garcia M, Lee J, Ramsook C, Alsteens D, Dufrene Y, Lipke P
PLoS One
. 2011 Mar;
6(3):e17632.
PMID: 21408122
Cell adhesion molecules in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans contain amyloid-forming sequences that are highly conserved. We have now used site-specific mutagenesis and specific peptide perturbants to explore amyloid-dependent activity...

Ramsook C, Tan C, Garcia M, Fung R, Soybelman G, Henry R, et al.
Eukaryot Cell
. 2009 Dec;
9(3):393-404.
PMID: 20038605
The occurrence of highly conserved amyloid-forming sequences in Candida albicans Als proteins (H. N. Otoo et al., Eukaryot. Cell 7:776-782, 2008) led us to search for similar sequences in other...

Frank A, Ramsook C, Otoo H, Tan C, Soybelman G, Rauceo J, et al.
Eukaryot Cell
. 2009 Oct;
9(3):405-14.
PMID: 19820118
Tandem repeat (TR) regions are common in yeast adhesins, but their structures are unknown, and their activities are poorly understood. TR regions in Candida albicans Als proteins are conserved glycosylated...
