Abstract excerpt
The filamentous fungus Mucor racemosus provides a simple and unique model system for defining the function of individual ras genes in a gene family which is closely related to mammalian ras genes. The current study was designed to investigate the role of Mras1 and Mras3 in different stages of fungal morphogenesis, including sporangiospore germination, sporulation, and dimorphic transitions. The overall patterns...
