Establishing the relative intracellular proportions of flavins in Neurospora crassa (and in other organisms) in vivo may be hampered by degradation of flavins after homogenization of the cells. The system described here allows separation and identification of intracellular free and bound flavins und
A Neurospora gene bank in plasmid pRK9 was used to complement pyrimidine auxotrophs in E. coli. Two plasmids were obtained that complement a pyrF mutant of E. coli. These plasmids hybridise to Neurospora DNA and transform a pyr-4 strain of Neurospora. The promoter used in expressing the orotidine 5'
Recombination at his-3 in Neurospora crassa is thought to be initiated through a site designated cog which lies in the his-3 to ad-3 interval of linkage group I. Fragments of the his-3 gene were used to transform various his-3 mutant alleles to prototrophy in order to link the genetic map to the nuc
In this work the Neurospora crassa al-3 gene function was determined. Geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate (GGPP) synthase activity was measured in al-2 FGSC 313 and al-3 RP100 FGSC 2082 mutant strains by in vitro synthesis methods. This experiment showed that al-3 RP100 mutant expresses a reduced GGPP synt
