Functional analysis of basidiomycete specific chitin synthase genes in the agaricomycete fungus Pleurotus ostreatus

•Three clades of basidiomycete specific chitin synthases were identified.•Disruption of chsb2–4 impacts hyphal morphology and cell wall thickness.•Δchsb2–4 strains are sensitive to cell wall and membrane, not oxidative stressors. Chitin is an essential structural component of fungal cell walls compo...
