Growth conditions shape the proteome and diversity of Neurospora crassa extracellular vesicles

Scientists studied tiny particles called extracellular vesicles released by a common fungus (Neurospora crassa) under different growth conditions. Using advanced techniques, they identified hundreds of proteins within these vesicles and found that what the fungus eats and how long it grows significantly changes the types and amounts of proteins the vesicles carry. The findings reveal that fungi release different types of vesicles than previously thought, expanding our understanding of how cells communicate and transport materials.
