Abstract excerpt
In filamentous ascomycetes hyphae are compartmentalized by septation in which the cytoplasm of the compartments are interconnected via septal pores. Thus, septation in filamentous fungi is different from cytokinesis in yeast like fungi. We have identified an Ashbya gossypii orthologue of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae CYK1 gene which belongs to the IQGAP-protein family. In contrast to S. cerevisiae disruption of...
