“…Many pacC/RIM101 homologues, like A. nidulans pacC [(Tilburn et al ., ) and Figs and B], are preferentially expressed under neutral to alkaline conditions. These include those of: Beauveria bassiana (Zhou et al ., ), C. albicans (Bensen et al ., ), F. oxysporum (Caracuel et al ., ), Magnaporthe oryzae (Landraud et al ., ), Metarhizium robertsii (Huang et al ., ), Trichoderma harzianum (Moreno‐Mateos et al ., ), T. virens (Trushina et al ., ), Wangiella ( Exophial ) dermatitidis (Wang and Szaniszlo, ), Y. lipolytica (Lambert et al ., ) but not, curiously, S. cerevisiae (Lamb et al ., ; Serrano et al ., ; Lamb and Mitchell, ; Viladevall et al ., ). This suggests that autoregulation might be a common feature, but the absence of reporter studies precludes determining whether this would be positive or negative.…”
