Published in 2017 at "International Journal of Molecular Sciences"

DOI: 10.3390/ijms18040702

Abstract: Chitin biosynthesis in yeast is accomplished by three chitin synthases (Chs) termed Chs1, Chs2 and Chs3, of which the latter accounts for most of the chitin deposited within the cell wall. While the overall structures… read more here.
