  • Title: Characterization of Neurospora crassa cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase activated by calmodulin.

    Journal: Biochem J; 1985 Dec 01; 232(2):425-30. PubMed ID: 3004404.
    Abstract:
    Activation of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase I by brain or Neurospora calmodulin was studied. The stimulation required micromolar concentrations of Ca2+, and it was observed at cyclic AMP concentrations between 0.1 and 500 microM. Activation was blocked by EDTA and some neuroleptic drugs such as chlorpromazine and fluphenazine. These drugs inhibit the elongation of N. crassa wild-type aerial hyphae. These results reinforce the evidence towards the recognition of Ca2+-calmodulin as one of the systems controlling cyclic nucleotide concentrations in Neurospora.
