Abstract excerpt
The genome of Aspergillus nidulans accommodates two glycerol 3-phosphate dehydrogenase genes, gfdA and gfdB. Previous studies confirmed that GfdA is involved in the osmotic stress defence of the fungus. In this work, the physiological role of GfdB was characterized via the construction and functional characterization of the gene deletion mutant ΔgfdB. Unexpectedly, ΔgfdB strains showed oxidative stress...
