Gene ID Name Evidence / Role Function (this paper)
MpNEK1 missing experimental subject The single NIMA-related kinase MpNEK1 was functionally characterized via inducible overexpression and knockout. MpNEK1 localizes to shrinking microtubule ends and regulates microtubule organization, cell division and rhizoid tip growth; its induction severely suppressed thallus growth.
MpACT missing experimental tool Actin MpACT used as an internal reference gene for RT-qPCR normalization.
MpEF1a missing experimental tool Elongation factor MpEF1alpha promoter used as an expression driver and its transcript as an RT-qPCR normalization reference.
Mp2g09390 MpTUB2 experimental tool Beta-tubulin MpTUB2 used as a Citrine-fused microtubule marker to visualize microtubules.
Mp7g06100 MpWDL citation background Cited microtubule-associated protein (WAVE DAMPENED-LIKE) whose mutants show a similar phenotype.
