Extracellular peptidases as possible markers of fungal ecology
2017-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Fungi produce extracellular peptidases to break down proteins and polypeptides into smaller soluble molecules. These molecules are subsequently transported into the fungal cell, supplying osmotrophic nutrition. Although a variety of extracellular peptidases have been isolated from numerous fungal species, it remains largely unknown how the spectrum of secreted peptidases correlates with fungal ecology and taxonomy...
