Paracoccidioides brasiliensis ? alpha-1,3-glucan, synthesized by the enzyme Ags1p, is essentially a linear polysaccharide, with 3% of alpha-1,4-linked glucose branches, occasionally attached as single units to the alpha-1,3-backbone ?

Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis mRNAs levels of Ras homology GTPase RHO2 and enzyme gene AGS1 keep a direct relationship but the levels of Ras homology GTPase RHO1 and beta-1,3-glucan synthase FKS1 do not. Growth of cells in the Y phase in YPG medium supplemented with 5% horse serum leads to an increase in the alpha-1,3-glucan content of the cell wall, without signifi cant increase in AGS1 expression, regardless of the Y cells being grown in the presence or absence of horse serum additional information
