The Unfolded Protein Response Regulates Pathogenic Development of <named-content content-type="genus-species">Ustilago maydis</named-content> by Rok1-Dependent Inhibition of Mating-Type Signaling

ABSTRACT Fungal pathogens require the unfolded protein response (UPR) to maintain protein homeostasis of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) during pathogenic development. In the corn smut fungus Ustilago maydis, pathogenic development is controlled by the a and b mating-type loci. The UPR is specificall...
