Nitrogen metabolite repression of nitrate reductase in Neurospora crassa
Abstract
The effect of different nitrogen compounds on the induction of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate-nitrate reductase was examined in Neurospora crassa. Whereas in the wild-type strain several amino acids and ammonia inhibit the formation of nitrate reductase, only glutamine, cysteine, and histidine are shown to inhibit the synthesis of nitrate reductase in a glutamine-requiring auxotroph. None of the amino acids inhibited …
