A Fungus-Specific Protein Domain Is Essential for RasA-Mediated Morphogenetic Signaling in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Aspergillus fumigatus</named-content>

ABSTRACT Ras proteins function as conserved regulators of eukaryotic growth and differentiation and are essential signaling proteins orchestrating virulence in pathogenic fungi. Here, we report the identification of a novel N-terminal domain of the RasA protein in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus...
