Chitin Biosynthesis during Blastocladiella Zoospore Germination: Evidence that the Hexosamine Biosynthetic Pathway is Post-Translationally Activated during Cell Differentiation

De novo construction of a chitinous cell wall accompanies Blastocladiella emersonii zoospore germination. At least an order of magnitude increase in total hexosamine occurs during germination. This increase is into polymer (chitin) and occurs on schedule in the presence of cycloheximide. Uridine-5′-...
