Abstract excerpt
Two chitin synthase genes, chsD and chsE, were identified from the filamentous ascomycete Aspergillus nidulans. In a region that is conserved among chitin synthases, the deduced amino acid sequences of chsD and chsE have greater sequence identity to the polypeptides encoded by the Saccharomyces c...
