Abstract excerpt
A complete chitin synthase gene and one chitin synthase gene fragment of the zygomycete Mucor circinelloides have been cloned and analyzed. Both genes encode zymogenic Class II chitin synthases. Hybridization analysis showed that there must exist at least another Class II chitin synthase gene in M. circinelloides highly homologous to the cloned Mcchs1 and Mcchs2. The expression of these genes during the dimorphic...
