1.A.23.4.17
MscB (AN6053) of 943 aas, a mechanosensitive channel in the PM membranes of filamentous fungi. It may have 6 or 7 TMSs in a 4 + 2 or 3 TMS arrangement, but there are also two moderately hydrophobic peaks near the C-terminus of the protein that might be TMSs. Orthologues of MscA and MscB are present in most fungi, including plant and animal pathogens. MscA/MscB and other fungal MscS-like proteins share the three TMSs and the extended C-terminal cytosolic domain that form the structural fingerprint of MscS-like channels (Dionysopoulou et al. 2022). Their overexpression leads to increased CaCl2 toxicity or/and reduction of asexual spore formation.
