Aspergillus fumigatus chsE: a gene related to CHS3 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and important for hyphal growth and conidiophore development but not pathogenicity.

Fungal genetics and biology : FG & B - 1 Feb 1997

Aufauvre-Brown A, Mellado E, Gow N A, Holden D W

Abstract excerpt

The Aspergillus fumigatus chsE (AfchsE) gene was isolated from an A. fumigatus DNA library on the basis of hybridization to a segment of Saccharomyces cerevisiae CHS3 (ScCHS3). The amino acid sequence derived from AfchsE is 28% identical with ScCHS3 and 80% identical with the product of Aspergillus nidulans chsD (AnchsD). A mutant strain constructed by disruption of AfchsE has reduced levels of mycelial chitin,...
