General information
Name of the gene or DNA sequence
Alpha-hordothionine gene
Abbreviation
CS-αHTH
Category of DNA sequence
  • Protein coding sequence
Is the gene / DNA sequence is a synthetic molecule?
No
Donor organism

Characteristics of the protein coding sequence
Name of the protein expressed by the coding sequence
Alpha-hordothionine
Biological function
Thionins are a class of small(45- 47 amino acids), anti fungal, highly basic, cysteine-rich proteins. An in vitro type-1 α-HTH treatment of Neurospora crassa hyphae resulted in increased calcium ion uptake and permeabilization of the fungal membrane, leading to rupture.
