Abstract excerpt
Rho-type GTPases regulate polarized growth in yeast by reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and through signalling pathways that control the expression of cell wall biosynthetic genes. We report the cloning and functional analysis of rho1 from Fusarium oxysporum, a soilborne fungal pathogen causing vascular wilt on plants and opportunistic infections in humans. F. oxysporum strains carrying either a Deltarho1...
