✦ Synopsis


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'-monophosphate carboxylase in E. coli is within the Neurospora sequence.

In Neurospora crassa the qa-2 gene, which encodes catabolic dehydroquinase, is under positive control exerted by the inducer quinic acid and an activator protein encoded in the closely linked qa-1 gene. In order to determine if this regulatory mechanism is maintained when the qa-2 gene is cloned on

Cellobiose, the last product in cellulose degradation, is converted into two molecules of glucose by a beta-glucosidase. S. cerevisiae does posses the structural gene for a beta-glucosidase, but it is very poorly expressed; we thus decided to isolate and characterize that of Kluyveromyces fragilis.

The structural gene, pen, for the beta-lactamase of B. licheniformis has been cloned into a lambda vector and shown to be expressed at a low rate in E. coli. The cloned pen gene appears to be expressed from a promoter within the fragment of B. licheniformia DNA, since its rate of expression is not a
