Early diverging insect pathogenic fungi of the order <i>Entomophthorales</i> possess diverse and unique subtilisin-like serine proteases
2018-01-15
Abstract excerpt
Insect-pathogenic fungi use subtilisin-like serine proteases (SLSPs) to degrade chitin-associated proteins in the insect procuticle. Most insect-pathogenic fungi in the order Hypocreales (Ascomycota) are generalist species with a broad host-range, and most species possess a high number of SLSPs. The other major clade of insect-pathogenic fungi is part of the subphylum Entomophthoromycotina (Zoopagomycota, formerly...
