AYT1 — Fusarium culmorum CS7071

Summary

FCUL_11039.1 (symbol AYT1, also known as TRI101) on chromosome 4 of Fusarium culmorum encodes a protein with acyltransferase activity, transferring groups other than amino-acyl groups, as well as isomerase, lyase, and transferase activities, and pigment binding and metal binding capabilities. The gene is associated with toxin anabolism, fatty acid beta-oxidation, and pH reduction, and its product localizes to mitochondria. The encoded protein belongs to the Sec_Metabolite_Acyltrans domain family and the CAT-like domain superfamily. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to acyltransferase and lyase activities (EC 2.3.1.- and 4.2.1.-).
