  • γ-Tubulin (a cytoskeletal protein discussed in Fig. 1and the text) is not listed here, because a γ-tubulin EST was not obtained from N. crassa during this study.

  • E-value of best BLAST hit in nonfungal data set.

  • E-value of best BLAST hit in S. cerevisiae data set.

  • Functional categories are as described in Nelson et al. (1997), based on a modification of the system described by White and Kerlavage (1996).
