Genetic analysis of the role of peroxisomes in the utilization of acetate and fatty acids in Aspergillus nidulans.

Genetics - 1 Mar 2008

Hynes Michael J, Murray Sandra L, Khew Gillian S, Davis Meryl A

Abstract excerpt

Peroxisomes are organelles containing a diverse array of enzymes. In fungi they are important for carbon source utilization, pathogenesis, development, and secondary metabolism. We have studied Aspergillus nidulans peroxin (pex) mutants isolated by virtue of their inability to grow on butyrate or by the inactivation of specific pex genes. While all pex mutants are able to form colonies, those unable to import...
