Comprehensive phenotypic analysis of multiple gene deletions of α-glucan synthase and Crh-transglycosylase gene families in Aspergillus niger highlighting the versatility of the fungal cell wall

Multiple paralogs are found in the fungal genomes for several genes that encode proteins involved in cell wall biosynthesis. The genome of A. niger contains five genes encoding putative α-1,3-glucan synthases (AgsA-E) and seven genes encoding putative glucan-chitin crosslinking enzymes (CrhA-G). Her...
