Abstract excerpt
Chitin is a minor but essential component of the cell wall of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, with functions in septum formation in the vegetative life cycle and also in conjugation and spore cell-wall synthesis in the sexual cycle. Of the three chitin synthases present in yeast, chitin synthase III (CSIII) is responsible for the synthesis of most of the chitin found in the cell, including a chitin ring at early...
