bem46 — Neurospora crassa

Summary

NCU06927 (bem46) on Neurospora crassa chromosome 7 encodes an abhydrolase domain-containing protein 12 with palmitoyl-protein hydrolase activity. This gene is associated with indole anabolism, spore germination, hyphal growth, and signal transduction, and its product localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and plasma membrane. Related genes in other species, including Verticillium dahliae and Fusarium oxysporum, also encode AB hydrolase-1 domain-containing proteins.
