The impact of fungal developmental structures on mechanical properties of mycelial materials.

Kelsey J Gray, Harley Edwards, Alexander G. Doan, Walker D. Huso, JungHun Lee, Wanwei Pan, Nelanne Bolima, Isha Gautam, Tuo Wang, Ranjan Srivastava, Marc Zupan, Mark R. Marten, Steven D. Harris

This study shows that suppressing asexual development in Aspergillus nidulans improves the mechanical strength of mycelial materials, with some mutants also showing increased elasticity due to autolysis.

Aspergillus nidulans cell wall integrity kinase, MpkA, impacts cellular phenotypes that alter mycelial-material mechanical properties

Kelsey Gray, Harley Edwards, Alexander G. Doan, Walker D. Huso, JungHun Lee, Wanwei Pan, Nelanne Bolima, Meredith E. Morse, S. Yoda, Isha Gautam, Steven D. Harris, Marc Zupan, Tuo Wang, Tagide deCarvalho, Mark R. Marten

This study shows that deleting the MpkA kinase in Aspergillus nidulans alters mycelial material mechanical properties, including increased tensile strength and resistance to fragmentation.
