Abstract excerpt
The Aspergillus nidulans brlA gene is a primary regulator of development-specific gene expression during conidiation. Forced activation of brlA in vegetative cells leads to inappropriate induction of conidiophore formation and causes growth to stop. In fact, when conidia containing a nutritionally inducible brlA gene fusion are placed on inducing medium, they fail to germinate. We used this phenotype to select...
