- W2736670246 abstract "N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) is the monomer of the polysaccharide chitin, an essential structural component of the fungal cell wall and the arthropod exoskeleton. We recently showed that the genes encoding the enzymes for GlcNAc catabolism are clustered in several ascomycetes. In the present study we tested these fungi for growth on GlcNAc and chitin. All fungi, containing the GlcNAc gene cluster, could grow on GlcNAc with the exception of four independent Neurospora crassa wild-type isolates, which were however able to grow on chitin. GlcNAc even inhibited their growth in the presence of other carbon sources. Genes involved in GlcNAc catabolism were strongly upregulated in the presence of GlcNAc, but during growth on chitin their expression was not increased. Deletion of hxk-3 (encoding the first catabolic enzyme, GlcNAc-hexokinase) and ngt-1 (encoding the GlcNAc transporter) improved growth of N. crassa on GlcNAc in the presence of glycerol. A crucial step in GlcNAc catabolism is enzymatic conversion from glucosamine-6-phosphate to fructose-6-phosphate, catalyzed by the glucosamine-6-phosphate deaminase, DAM-1. To assess, if DAM-1 is compromised in N. crassa, the orthologue from Trichoderma reesei, Trdam1, was expressed in N. crassa. Trdam1 expression partially alleviated the negative effects of GlcNAc in the presence of a second carbon source, but did not fully restore growth on GlcNAc. Our results indicate that the GlcNAc-catabolism pathway is bypassed during growth of N. crassa on chitin by use of an alternative pathway, emphasizing the different strategies that have evolved in the fungal kingdom for chitin utilization." @default.
