O-Mannosyltransferase 1 in Aspergillus fumigatus (AfPmt1p) is crucial for cell wall integrity and conidium morphology, especially at an elevated temperature.

Abstract excerpt

Protein O-mannosyltransferases initiate O mannosylation of secretory proteins, which are of fundamental importance in eukaryotes. In this study, the PMT gene family of the human fungal pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus was identified and characterized. Unlike the case in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, where the PMT family is highly redundant, only one member of each PMT subfamily, namely, Afpmt1, Afpmt2, and Afpmt4, is...
