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

The prn gene cluster involved in L-proline catabolism in Aspergillus nidulans, has the gene order prnA-prnD-regulatory region-prnB-prnC. prnB, prnD, and prnC specify proline permease, proline oxidase, and delta1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C) dehydrogenase, respectively. prnA is probably a positive r
The levels of glucose-6-phosphate and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase in wildtype cells of Aspergillus nidulans varied with the carbon and nitrogen source. In general, hexokinase activity did not vary with carbon or nitrogen source. The ammonium derepressed mutant amrA1 had only 50% of the wildtype
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
