Abstract excerpt
New mutations of the polyamine pathway of Neurospora crassa fell into three categories. The majority affected ornithine decarboxylase and lay at the previously defined spe-1 locus. One mutation, JP100, defining the new spe-2 locus, eliminated S-adenosyl-methionine decarboxylase and led to putrescine accumulation. Revertants of this mutation suggested that the locus encodes the enzyme. Two other mutations, LV105...
