RbdB, a Rhomboid Protease Critical for SREBP Activation and Virulence in <i>Aspergillus fumigatus</i>
3 Mar 2016
Abstract excerpt
SREBP transcription factors play a critical role in fungal virulence; however, the mechanisms of sterol regulatory element binding protein (SREBP) activation in pathogenic fungi remains ill-defined. Screening of the Neurospora crassa whole-genome deletion collection for genes involved in hypoxia responses identified a gene for an uncharacterized rhomboid protease homolog, rbdB, required for growth under hypoxic...
