Identification of conidial-enriched transcripts in Aspergillus nidulans using suppression subtractive hybridization.

Abstract excerpt

We have isolated and sequence-identified 12 genes whose transcripts are significantly enriched in Aspergillus nidulans conidia. To identify these genes, we used the method of suppressive subtraction hybridization (SSH). One of the 12 genes is similar to plant thaumatin-like proteins that have antifungal properties. Four genes encode metabolic enzymes crucial in the synthesis of glucose, carbohydrates, nucleic...
