An Ashbya gossypii cts2 mutant deficient in a sporulation-specific chitinase can be complemented by Candida albicans CHT4.

Microbiological research - 1 Jan 2008

Abstract excerpt

The Candida albicans genome encodes four chitinases, CHT1, CHT2, CHT3 and CHT4. All four C. albicans chitinase-encoding genes are non-essential. The corresponding proteins belong to two groups in which Cht1, Cht2 and Cht3 are more similar to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cts1, while Cht4 is more simil...
