Abstract excerpt
The ethanol utilization pathway in Aspergillus nidulans is a model system, which has been thoroughly elucidated at the biochemical, genetic and molecular levels. Three main elements are involved: (a) high level expression of the positively autoregulated activator AlcR; (b) the strong promoters of the structural genes for alcohol dehydrogenase (alcA) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (aldA); and (c) powerful activation...
