β¦ Synopsis
The amdR gene of Aspergillus nidulans regulates a number of structural genes in response to omega amino acid inducers. The site of action of the amdR product on expression of the amdS gene was investigated by studying the effects of changes in the 5' region of amdS, generated in vitro, on the induction, and on responses of an amdS-lacZ fusion gene to an amdRc allele. A sequence was identified that is sufficient for amdR regulation and that shows identity with sequences involved in amdR regulation of the gatA and lam genes. This sequence includes a CCAAT sequence and it was shown that this sequence is an important element in setting the basal level of amdS expression.

The transcriptional organization and sequence of the Aspergillus nidulans argB gene, encoding ornithine carbamoyl transferase (OCTase; E.C. 2.1.3.3.), was determined. Transcription of the gene begins within a methionine-initiated open translation reading frame, indicating that a second methionine co
In the fungus Aspergillus nidulans the levels of a number of enzymes whose location is at least in part extracellular (e.g. acid phosphatase, alkaline phosphatase, phosphodiesterase) and of certain permeases (e.g. that for gamma-amino-n-butyrate) are controlled by the pH of the growth medium. For ex
