The <i>Aspergillus fumigatus</i> conidial melanin production is regulated by the bifunctional bHLH DevR and MADS‐box RlmA transcription factors

9 Jul 2016

Abstract excerpt

Melanins play a crucial role in defending organisms against external stressors. In several pathogenic fungi, including the human pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus, melanin production was shown to contribute to virulence. A. fumigatus produces two different types of melanins, i.e., pyomelanin and dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN)-melanin. DHN-melanin forms the gray-green pigment characteristic for conidia, playing an...
