Figure Lengend Snippet: The Neurospora crassa nag-1 gene coding for a putative GH20 N-acetyl hexosaminidase is uniquely induced on gh18-10 deletion strain upon ER stress. (A ) Venn diagram of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of Δ pngA , Δ gh18-10 and WT strain grown under tunicamycin ER stress conditions. ( B ) Predicted schematic overview and structural comparison highlighting similarities between the nag-1 and gh18-10 enzymes. PDB structures were generated using AlphaFold 3, and structural alignments were performed with TM-align using default parameters. ( C ) Phenotypic analysis of nag-1 deletion strain under tunicamycin stress conditions. Mycelial radial growth was measured 24 h of incubation at 30 °C. Different letters (a, b, c) indicate statistically significant differences, and bars represent the mean ± error. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences ( p < 0.05) according to Tukey test.
Article Snippet: Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA using the Tukey test (p < 0.05) (Minitab, LLC, 2021).
Techniques: Comparison, Generated, Incubation
