Abstract:
:Previous complementation of a chitin synthase class Vb null mutant (Colletotrichum graminicola chsA) indicated that the encoded protein is responsible for approximately 30% of the conidial chitin, is essential for conidial wall strength in media with high water potential, and contributes to strength of hyphal tips. We complemented a chsA null mutant with chsA fused to the green-fluorescent protein (sgfp) gene driven by a heterologous constitutively expressed promoter. Comparisons of the strain with the ectopic chsA-sgfp to the wild type indicated that ChsA-sGFP serves the same biological functions as ChsA in that like the wild type, the chsADelta chsA::sgfp (EC) had conidia that did not explode and hyphal tips that did not swell. Confocal microscopy of ChsA-sGFP (EC) cells stained with the membrane stain FM 4-64 (N-(3-triethylammoniumpropyl)-4-(6-(4-(diethylamino)phenyl)hexatrienyl)pyridinium dibromide) indicated that ChsA is localized in the plasma membrane of the following: growing apices of hyphal branches, conidiophores, and falcate and oval conidia; in nascent septa; and in septa that are being converted to an end wall after hyphal breakage. The data support the hypothesis that chsA either directly or indirectly encodes the information for its localization, that ChsA is localized in the plasma membrane, and that the class Vb enzyme produces chitin synthase in multiple cells and after wall breakage.
