Abstract excerpt
Two strains characterized as niaD structural gene mutants in Aspergillus nidulans produce a nitrate reductase which retains the ability to react with nitrate while lacking the ability to oxidize its naturally occurring substrate NADPH. Fifteen such nitrate reactive niaD strains exhibited strong interallelic complementation when tested against strains bearing point mutations in eleven other loci essential to...
