Abstract excerpt
We report the isolation and characterization of a Neurospora crassa glutamine synthetase (GS) mutant altered in one of the two polypeptides (GS alpha) of this enzyme. We used the gln-1bR8 mutant strain that synthesizes only the GS alpha monomer and lacks the GS beta monomer and selected for growt...
