N-terminal intrinsically disordered region mediates self-catalytic interfacial nucleation of Aspergillus oryzae hydrophobin RolA
Hydrophobins are biosurfactant proteins that coat the cell surfaces of filamentous fungi. On the conidial surface, hydrophobins self-assemble into rodlets, forming a dense hydrophobic film that promotes air-dispersibility. Although rodlet formation is closely associated with the physiology of filamentous fungi, its underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. Previously, we revealed…
