R-Glucanase Activity and Susceptibility of Hyphal Walls to Degradation in Mutants of Schizophyllum with Disrupted Nuclear Migration Free

Abstract

Summary: R-glucanase activities, and susceptibility of native-wall preparations to degradation by R-glucanase, were determined in strains of with three different mutations that disrupt nuclear migration. These mutations, and appeared to affect the susceptibility of the hyphal wall to R-glucanase but and also had an effect on the activity of R-glucanase. Both effects may be related to the stability of complex septa in these mutants and account for their specific mating behaviour.
