DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2205619119
Abstract: Significance Melanins are ubiquitous photoprotective biopolymer pigments with major implications ranging from fruit browning to severe human diseases, including skin cancer. Tyrosinase, the enzyme catalyzing the rate-limiting step in melanin biosynthesis is thus an important… read more here.

DOI: 10.1094/phyto-01-22-0037-r
Abstract: In ascomycetes, 1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) melanin plays important protective functions and its production is usually coupled with development and environmental stress responses. The regulation of melanin biosynthesis, however, remains obscure. Colletotrichum fructicola is a phytopathogen with… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.02581-21
Abstract: Verticillium wilt is difficult to manage because the pathogen colonizes the plant xylem tissue and produces melanized microsclerotia which survive for more than 10 years in soil without a host. The molecular mechanisms underlying microsclerotia formation… read more here.
