“…Elucidation of the factors governing the regulation of chitin synthesis in S. cerevisiae has been the subject of intense research efforts over the past two decades, with a molecular approach providing clarification of many of the previously unresolved issues. To date, several genes regulating different aspects of chitin synthesis in this yeast have been described, CHSI, CHS2, CS02, CS03, CS04, and CALI (32,38,51,220,254). Each has been found to regulate different aspects of chitin synthesis during the growth, budding, and repair of the cell wall of this yeast, with differential levels of activity.…”
