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 cerevisiae CHS3 gene (also named CSD2, CAL1, DIT101, and KTI1) and the Candida albicans CHSE gene than to other chitin...
