Fungus-Specific Sirtuin HstD Coordinates Secondary Metabolism and Development through Control of LaeA
1 Jun 2013
Abstract excerpt
The sirtuins are members of the NAD(+)-dependent histone deacetylase family that contribute to various cellular functions that affect aging, disease, and cancer development in metazoans. However, the physiological roles of the fungus-specific sirtuin family are still poorly understood. Here, we determined a novel function of the fungus-specific sirtuin HstD/Aspergillus oryzae Hst4 (AoHst4), which is a homolog of...
