Transformation of Neurospora crassa spheroplasts is reported for three different genes, using uncloned Neurospora DNA, both naked and encapsulated in synthetic phosphatidylserine liposomes. Whereas transformation by naked DNA is DNase-sensitive, that by liposomes is not. Per unit of transforming DNA

Neurospora crassa can utilize various purine bases such as xanthine or uric acid and their catabolic products as a nitrogen source. The early purine catabolic enzymes in this organism are regulated by induction and by ammonium repression. Studies were undertaken to investigate purine base transport
Neurospora crassa can utilize various purine bases such as xanthine or uric acid and their catabolic products as a nitrogen source. Four classes of mutants which affect the purine degradative pathway were isolated and studied. Mutants of the aln-1 class specifically lack allantoinase, while alc-1 mu
## Abstract Enzymic cleavage of Nβglycosidic bonds of AMP, GMP, and inosine by the cellβfree extracts of __Neurospora crassa__ has been studied. The enzymic activities with these substrates appear to be discrete from one another. The levels of these enzymes in the cell vary with age, and are depend
