Biotransformation of Hydrocortisone by Neurospora crassa

The ability of Neurospora crassa FGSC 4335 in the biotransformation of hydrocortisone was investigated. The microorganism produced two major metabolites after incubation with the substrate for seven days. Each microbial product was purified chromatographically and identified on the basis of spectral data. The products were identified as 11?,17?,20?,21-tetrahydroxypregn-4-en-3-one (II) and 11?-h...

Quelling in Neurospora crassa.

Heterocaryosis in Neurospora Crassa.

T IS possible by means of X-ray or ultraviolet treatment to produce mutant I strains of Neurospora crassa that are deficient in their abilities to synthesize specific vitamins, amino acids, or other essential substances (BEADLE and TATUM 1941; TATUM and BEADLE 1g4zb). It occurred to us that it might be possible to determine whether the mutant genes concerned in such haploid strains are recessiv...

Cellulase of Neurospora crassa.

Mycelia and ungerminated conidia of Neurospora crassa were found to secrete extracellular endocellulase (EC 3.2.1.4). A simple induction system of potassium phosphate buffer (ph 6.0) plus inducer relied on the internal metabolic reserves of conicia or mycelia to provide energy and substrates for protein synthesis. Buffer concentration for optimum enzyme production was 100 mM, but at higher buff...

Protoplasts from Neurospora crassa.

Weibull (1953) demonstrated that the intact protoplasts are liberated from cells of Bacillus megaterium after digestion of the cell wall by the enzyme lysozyme, and that these structures persist and exhibit many of the activities of the whole cell provided they are maintained in solutions of appropriate osmotic pressure. Since that time free protoplasts have been obtained from many other gram-p...

MOLECULAR ANALYSIS OF THE SULFUR REGULATORY CIRCUIT OF NEUROSPORA CRASSA

The sulfur regulatory circuit of the filamentous fungus, Neurospora crassa, consists of a set of unlinked structural genes which encode sulfur catabolic and two major regulatory genes which govern their expression. The cys-3 regulatory gene encode a transacting regulatory protein which activates the expression of cys-14 and ars, whereas the other regulatory genes Scon-l and Scon-2 appear to...
