The formation of mitotically derived spores, called conidia, is a common reproductive mode
in filamentous fungi, particularly among the large fungal class Ascomycetes. Asexual …

There is an astonishing array of microbial alcohol oxidoreductases. They display a wide
variety of substrate specificities and they fulfill several vital but quite different physiological …

The or/A gene of A. nidulans mediates the developmental switch from the indeterminate,
apical growth pattern of vegetative cells to the budding growth pattern of conidiophores. br/A …

Aspergillus nidulans br/A, abaA, and wefA form a dependent pathway that regulates asexual
reproductive development. The order in which these genes are expressed determines the …

Many plants, as well as other organisms, accumulate betaine (N, N, N-trimethylglycine) as a
nontoxic or protective osmolyte under saline or dry conditions. In plants, the last step in …

Plasmids have been constructed in which expression of agene can be placed under the
control of the inducible promoter of the alcA gene encoding alcohol dehydrogenase I in …

The CREA repressor responsible for carbon catabolite repression in Aspergillus nidulans
represses the transcription of the ethanol regulon. The N‐terminal part of the CREA protein …

Green fluorescent protein (GFP) is a useful reporter to follow the in vivo behaviour of
proteins, but the wild‐type gfp gene does not function in many organisms, including many …

In Aspergillus nidulans alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) I and aldehyde dehydrogenase
(AldDH) are co-inducible by acetaldehyde (Pateman et al., 1983; Sealy-Lewis and …

Amino acid sequencing of peptides obtained after proteolytic hydrolysis of Aspergillus flavus
urate oxidase (uricase) permitted the design of oligodeoxynucleotide probes that were used …
