Two phosphodiesterases from Ustilago maydis share structural and biochemical properties with non-fungal phosphodiesterases

The dependence of Protein Kinase A (PKA) activity on cAMP levels is an important facet of the dimorphic switch between budding and filamentous growth as well as for pathogenicity in some fungi. To better understand these processes in the pathogenic fungus Ustilago maydis, we characterized the struct...
