In Aspergillus nidulans uric acid can be produced from xanthine via purine hydroxylase I (xanthine dehydrogenase) or via the xanthine alternative pathway (Darlington and Scazzocchio, Biochem. Biophys. Acta, 166, 569--571; 1968). A mutation defective in the xanthine alternative pathway of Aspergillus
Mutants, designated tamAr, have been isolated on the basis of simultaneous resistance to toxic analogues thiourea, aspartate hydroxamate and chlorate with L-alanine as the sole nitrogen source. tamAr mutants are also resistant to methylammonium. This resistance of tamAr mutants is correlated with pa
In the present study, the extracellular protease activity in a strain of the filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger was investigated and mutant strains deficient in the production of extracellular proteases were isolated. The major protease, which is responsible for 80-85% of the total activity, is as
