FUN™ 1 es sonda de viabilidad fluorescente de dos colores para levaduras y hongos. La tinción FUN™ 1 se difunde pasivamente en una variedad de tipos de células e inicialmente tiñe el citoplasma con fluorescencia verde distribuida difusamente En varias especies comunes de levaduras y hongos, el procesamiento posterior del tinte por células vivas da lugar a la formación de estructuras vacuolares distintas con forma compacta que muestran una llamativa fluorescencia roja, acompañada de la reducción de la fluorescencia citoplasmática verde La formación de estructuras intravacuolares requiere tanto la integridad de la membrana plasmática como la capacidad metabólica Las células muertas tienen una fluorescencia amarillo-verde brillante, sin estructuras rojas discernibles.

Preguntas frecuentes
Can FUN 1 stained cells be examined by flow cytometry?
Yes. Use a 488 nm laser line and standard FITC and PE channels for two-color detection of green (dead/metabolically inactive cells) and red (live, metabolically active cells) emission.
Live, metabolically active fungi transport FUN 1 into vacuoles to give a red-shifted fluorescence versus green/yellow fluorescence in the nucleus and cytoplasm of dead or metabolically-inactive cells. Is this a reliable indicator of fungal viability?
No. FUN 1 accumulates into vacuoles by an unknown transport pathway, but any mutants/ recombinant cells or experimental treatments that result in a deficiency or block in vesicle-mediate transport into vacuoles may result in cells that do not have red vacuoles, even though the cells are live and metabolically active.

SOD2 functions downstream of Sch9 to extend longevity in yeast.
Authors:Fabrizio P, Liou LL, Moy VN, Diaspro A, Valentine JS, Gralla EB, Longo VD
Journal:Genetics
PubMed ID:12586694
'Signal transduction pathways inactivated during periods of starvation are implicated in the regulation of longevity in organisms ranging from yeast to mammals, but the mechanisms responsible for life-span extension are poorly understood. Chronological life-span extension in S. cerevisiae cyr1 and sch9 mutants is mediated by the stress-resistance proteins Msn2/Msn4 and ... More
Early events in macrophage killing of Aspergillus fumigatus conidia: new flow cytometric viability assay.
Authors:Marr KA, Koudadoust M, Black M, Balajee SA
Journal:Clin Diagn Lab Immunol
PubMed ID:11687470
'Detailed investigations of macrophage phagocytosis and killing of Aspergillus fumigatus conidia have been limited by technical difficulties in quantifying fungal uptake and viability. In order to study early events in cell pathogen ingestion and killing, we developed a new flow cytometry assay that utilizes the fungus-specific viability dye FUN-1. Metabolically ... More
Human immature dendritic cells efficiently bind and take up secretory IgA without the induction of maturation.
Authors:Heystek HC, Moulon C, Woltman AM, Garonne P, van Kooten C
Journal:J Immunol
PubMed ID:11751952
'Immature dendritic cells (DC) reside in peripheral tissues, where they pick up and process incoming pathogens via scavenger receptors or FcR such as FcgammaR and FcepsilonR. At mucosal surfaces, IgA is the main Ig to protect the body from incoming pathogens. In addition, DC are present in high numbers at ... More
In vitro growth and analysis of Candida biofilms.
Authors:Chandra J, Mukherjee PK, Ghannoum MA,
Journal:Nat Protoc
PubMed ID:19180075
'Evaluation of fungal biofilm formation can be performed using several techniques. In this protocol, we describe methods used to form Candida biofilms on three different medical device substrates (denture strips, catheter disks and contact lenses) to quantify them and to evaluate their architecture and drug susceptibility. Biofilm formation involves adhesion ... More
Viruses activate a genetically conserved cell death pathway in a unicellular organism.
Authors:Ivanovska I, Hardwick JM
Journal:J Cell Biol
PubMed ID:16061692
'Given the importance of apoptosis in the pathogenesis of virus infections in mammals, we investigated the possibility that unicellular organisms also respond to viral pathogens by activating programmed cell death. The M1 and M2 killer viruses of Saccharomyces cerevisiae encode pore-forming toxins that were assumed to kill uninfected yeast cells ... More
