2.1.1.317 malfunction increased levels of unmethylated glucosylceramide are observed in smtA mutants. DELTAsmtA and wild-type cells show a similar 9-methyl-glucosylceramide content Aspergillus nidulans
2.1.1.317 malfunction increased levels of unmethylated glucosylceramide are observed in smtB mutants. DELTAsmtB cells show activity reduced by 50%. The compromised 9-methyl-glucosylceramide production in the DELTAsmtB strain is not accompanied by reduced filamentation or defects in cell polarity Aspergillus nidulans
