Abstract excerpt
The transcription factor PacC, mediating regulation of gene expression by ambient pH in the genetically amenable fungus Aspergillus nidulans, contains a three zinc finger DNA-binding domain (zf-DBD) including a nuclear localisation signal (NLS). We selected 38 novel mutations impairing PacC function, of which 21 missense mutations identify individual residues essential for zf-DBD structure/function. Our...
