General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction inactivation of both homologs of Erg24 results in decreased hyphal growth and virulence, leads to the disruption of ion homeostasis and affects ergosterol biosynthesis. Loss of one homolog of Erg24 impairs hyphal growth, conidiation, and virulence but has no effect on ergosterol biosynthesis Aspergillus fumigatus
physiological function both erg24A and erg24B homologs in combination, but not individuall, are essential for the viability of Aspergillus fumigatus. The enzyme plays a critical role in ergosterol biosynthesis and ion homeostasis Aspergillus fumigatus
