HAM1 — Neurospora crassa

Summary

NCU06265, designated HAM1 on Neurospora crassa chromosome 3, encodes a protein containing DUF5923 and DUF4449 domains. The gene is associated with protein palmitoylation, sexual reproduction, and mating based on ontology annotations. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to uncharacterized proteins and bactericidal permeability-increasing protein domains, though these associations are not established for HAM1 itself.
