We report here the discovery of a family of transposable elements, which we refer to as Fot1 elements, in the fungal plant pathogen Fusarium oxysporum. The first element was identified as an insertion in the gene encoding nitrate reductase. It is 1928 bp long, has 44 bp inverted terminal repeats, co

An enzyme with alpha-galactosidase activity and an apparent molecular weight of 82 kDa was purified from culture medium of Aspergillus niger. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the purified protein shows similarity to the N-terminal amino acid sequence of alpha-galactosidases from several other o
Two transposable elements have been identified at the dunce locus in chromosomes recovered after a premeiotic and interchromosomal conversion event occurred at this gene. One is approximately 8.2 kb and is inserted near the 5' end of the gene. This element was identified by sequence analysis as a me
