GalR, GalX and AraR co‐regulate d‐galactose and l‐arabinose utilization in Aspergillus nidulans
Summary Filamentous fungi produce a wide variety of enzymes in order to efficiently degrade plant cell wall polysaccharides. The production of these enzymes is controlled by transcriptional regulators, which also control the catabolic pathways that ...
