Abstract excerpt
In Aspergillus nidulans, the principal transcription factor regulating nitrogen metabolism, AREA, belongs to the GATA family of DNA-binding proteins. In seeking additional GATA factors, we have cloned areB, which was originally identified via a genetic screen for suppressors of areA loss-of-function mutations. Based on our analysis, areB is predicted to encode at least three distinct protein products. These arise...
