- W2196328534 abstract "Chemical communication is essential for coordination of activities in a multicellular organism. Hormones play an essential role in this communication as chemical signaling molecules. Hormones are substances produced in one portion of an organism and transported by any means, including diffusion, to other portions of the same individual or other individuals of the same species where they induce specific responses. This chapter describes the fungal sex hormone systems and compares these with the interactions of mammalian hormone systems with fungi. Many parallels may be drawn between mating systems of fungi and well-characterized peptide/protein-receptor and steroid-receptor systems of mammalian endocrinology. Thus, a number of fungal messenger molecules and their receptors, and signal transduction mechanisms and other biochemical processes that mediate responses of fungal cells to endogenous hormones, bear close resemblance to their counterparts in mammalian cells. The major senses of fungi are chemical. Thus, fungi use chemical compounds so that they can communicate to co-ordinate their sexual reproduction. The chapter discusses the interaction of mammalian steroid and polypeptide-protein hormones with fungi. The chapter focusses on the interaction of mammalian sex hormones (androgens, oestrogens, and progesterone) with fungi. Although some of these interactions may have important implications for the pathogenicity of certain fungi, their significance with regard to routine biochemistry and physiology of the fungal cell remains obscure." @default.
