Abstract excerpt
D-Glucose uptake in germinating wild-type Aspergillus nidulans conidia is an energy-requiring process mediated by at least two transport systems of differing affinities for glucose: a low-affinity system (K(m) approximately 1.4 mM) and a high-affinity system (K(m) approximately 16 micro M). The low-affinity system is inducible by glucose; the high-affinity system is subject to glucose repression effected by the...
