Deletion of the celA gene in Aspergillus nidulans triggers overexpression of secondary metabolite biosynthetic genes

Abstract Although much progress has been made in the study of cell wall biosynthetic genes in the model filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans, there are still targets awaiting characterization. An example is the gene celA (ANIA_08444) encoding a putative mixed linkage glucan synthase. To character...
