Summary

AFU2G17550 (ayg1) in Aspergillus fumigatus chromosome 2 encodes a protein belonging to the FrsA-like esterase family, with hydrolase activity (EC 3.7.1.-). This gene is associated with polyketide breakdown, L-phenylalanine breakdown, pigmentation, pigment anabolism, polyketide anabolism, and melanin anabolism, as well as endosome localization. Related genes in other species link the family to pigment biosynthesis.
