The single class I myosin (MYOA) of Aspergillus nidulans is essential for hyphal growth. It is generally assumed that the functions of all myosins depend on their actin-activated MgATPase activity. Here we show that MYOA mutants with no more than 1 % of the actin-activated MgATPase activity of wild-type MYOA in vitro and no detectable in vitro motility activity can support fungal cell growth, albeit with a delay in germination time and a reduction in hyphal elongation. From these and other data, we conclude that the essential roles) of myosin I in A. nidulans is probably structural, requiring little, if any, actin-activated MgATPase or motor activity, which have long been considered the defining characteristics of the myosin family.
