The proteinO-mannosyltransferase catalyzesO-mannosylation in the endoplasmic reticulum by transferring mannose to the seryl or threonyl residues of substrate proteins. We previously reported a deletion mutant ofO-mannosyltransferase C (ΔpmtC) inAspergillus nidulanswith impaired vegetative growth and sterigmatocystin (ST) production. In this study, we investigated whether osmotic conditions contribute to the developmental processes and ST biosynthesis of the ΔpmtCdeletion mutant. We found that hyphal growth and ST production partially improved in the presence of NaCl, KCl or sorbitol as osmotic stabilizers. Conidiation of the ΔpmtCdeletion mutant was not restored under osmotic stress conditions when thehogAgene was deleted. ThehogAgene encodes a protein required for the cellular response to osmotic pressure. However, the yield of ST and the vegetative growth of the ΔhogAΔpmtCdouble deletant was restored by high osmolarity in a HogA-independent manner.
