Research Abstract |
We found some novel fungal proteins which natively exist on cell surface or are excreted out through cell membrane. Candidate proteins were chosen depending on levels of transcription for further experiments of gene cloning and of producing antibody, then confirmed that some proteins could be detected in culture medium. That showed those candidate, or at least a part of those, are excreted out to medium from fungal cell. We developed a preliminary diagnostic kit as an application of the study.
