N‐acetylglucosamine sensing in the filamentous soil fungus Trichoderma reesei
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.N‐acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) is involved in diverse signaling pathways in dimorphic yeasts and bacteria, including virulence and cell death. Here, we investigated GlcNAc sensing in Trichoderma reesei. GlcNAc signaling influences around 2100 genes in this filamentous soil fungus.
