Identification of membrane proteome of Paracoccidioides Lutzii and its regulation by zinc

Resumo

The methodology of protein identification allows the characterization of biological processes performed by those molecules. Therefore, we performed a membrane proteomic analysis of Paracoccidioides lutzii and further evaluated the responses of the fungus to zinc deprivation. The results obtained in the work allowed the characterization of membrane proteins present in organelles that are related to different cellular functions. Zinc deprivation changes processes related to cellular physiology and metabolism. These results help us to understand the process of pathogen–host interaction, since zinc deprivation is a condition present during infection.
