Phospholipase PlcH is involved in the secretion of cell wall glycoproteins and contributes to the host immune response of Aspergillus fumigatus

mLife, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 537-550, December 2024.
Abstract Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchoring is one of the conserved posttranslational modifications in eukaryotes that attach proteins to the plasma membrane. In fungi, in addition to plasma membrane GPI‐anchored proteins (GPI‐APs), some GPI‐APs are specifically released from the cell membrane, secreted into the cell wall, and covalently ...
