Abstract: ABSTRACT A diverse family of metalloproteases (MPs) is distributed in eukaryotes. However, the functions of MPs are still understudied. We report that seven MPs belonging to the M35 family are encoded in the genome of… read more here.

Abstract: Rhizoctonia cerealis is the causal pathogen of the devastating disease, sharp eyespot, of the important crop wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). In phytopathogenic fungi, several M36 metalloproteases have been implicated in virulence, but pathogenesis roles of… read more here.
