Minc Lab – Cell wall dynamics stabilize tip growth in a filamentous fungus

L'équipe Minc vient de publier un nouvel article dans PLOS Biology Cell wall dynamics stabilize tip growth in a filamentous fungus   Abstract Hyphal tip growth allows filamentous fungi to colonize space, reproduce, or infect. It features remarkable morphogenetic plasticity including unusually fast elongation rates, tip turning, branching, or bulging. These shape changes are all driven from the…
