✦ Synopsis

We report the isolation of a pgk- mutant strain of Aspergillus nidulans by means of a gene disruption strategy, and demonstrate that the pgk gene is located on chromosome VIII. The pgk- mutant conidiates poorly, will only grow on media supplemented with both a glycolytic and a gluconeogenic carbon source, and is inhibited by hexoses.

The mammalian genome contains two functional loci for the production of phosphoglycerate kinase, PGK-1, an X-linked gene expressed in all somatic cells, and PGK-2, an autosomal intron-less gene expressed exclusively in late spermatogenesis. A nucleotide substitution from guanine to thymine was recen
