Negative regulation of the vacuole-mediated resistance to K(+) stress by a novel C2H2 zinc finger transcription factor encoded by aslA in Aspergillus nidulans.

Abstract excerpt

In fungi and plants, vacuoles function as a storage and sequestration vessel for a wide variety of ions and are responsible for cytosolic ion homeostasis and responses to ionic shock. In the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans, however, little is known about the molecular genetic mechanisms of vacuolar biogenesis and function. In the present study, we analyzed the function of the aslA gene (AN5583) encoding a...
