Fungal Morphogenesis Pathways

Molecular classification: Signaling pathway, Regulatory network

Overview

Fungal morphogenesis pathways are complex signaling networks that control the shape, growth form, and development of fungal cells. These pathways involve changes in cell polarity, surface structure, and wall composition that enable fungi to switch between different growth forms and adapt to their environments. Key pathways include MAPK/CWI, cAMP/PKA, and small GTPases, which regulate processes such as cell cycle, stress response, cell wall integrity, and polarized growth. Manipulation of these pathways can attenuate virulence or block infection-related development.
