Abstract excerpt
Hexose phosphorylation was studied in Aspergillus nidulans wild-type and in a fructose non-utilising mutant (frA). The data indicate the presence of at least one hexokinase and one glucokinase in wild-type A. nidulans, while the frA1 mutant lacks hexokinase activity. The A. nidulans gene encoding hexokinase was isolated by complementation of the frA1 mutation. The absence of hexokinase activity in the frA1 mutant...
