Abstract excerpt
The recessive, temperature-sensitive bimA1 mutation of Aspergillus nidulans blocks nuclei in metaphase at restrictive temperature. To determine whether the bimA product is essential, integrative transformation was used to create a mutation in the bimA gene. The mutation was maintained in a heterokaryon and the phenotype of spores produced by the heterokaryon was analyzed. Molecular disruption of the wild-type...
