Spontaneous mutation at the mtr locus of Neurospora: the spectrum of mutant types.

Abstract excerpt

We have isolated 135 strains of Neurospora which have mutations at the mtr locus resulting from independent spontaneous events. mtr is the structural gene for the neutral amino acid permease. The mutants have been characterized by their reversion behavior (both spontaneous and induced) and by hyb...
