• The Fungal Cell Wall: Candida, Cryptococcus, and Aspergillus Species (2020, background): “The composition of the outer cell wall varies between morphotypes, hyphae, and conidium which has a rodlet layer composed of hydrophobins followed by dihydroxynaphtalene melanin (Aimanianda et al., 2009; Bayry et al., 2014).”
• The Fungal Cell Wall: Structure, Biosynthesis, and Function (2017, background): “However, once the integrity of the rodlet layer of these spores is breached, then the underlying galactosaminoglycan (GAG) and GM and β-(1,3) glucan layers can be recognized by alveolar macrophages, enabling the innate immune response to be initiated (21).”
