  • Title: Calcineurin localizes to the hyphal septum in Aspergillus fumigatus: implications for septum formation and conidiophore development.
    Author: Juvvadi PR, Fortwendel JR, Pinchai N, Perfect BZ, Heitman J, Steinbach WJ.
    Journal: Eukaryot Cell; 2008 Sep; 7(9):1606-10. PubMed ID: 18606829.
    Abstract:
    A functional calcineurin A fusion to enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP), CnaA-EGFP, was expressed in the Aspergillus fumigatus DeltacnaA mutant. CnaA-EGFP localized in actively growing hyphal tips, at the septa, and at junctions between the vesicle and phialides in an actin-dependent manner. This is the first study to implicate calcineurin in septum formation and conidiophore development of a filamentous fungus.
