  • Title: New mutational variants of Neurospora NADP-specific glutamate dehydrogenase.
    Author: Kinsey JA, Fincham JR, Siddig MA, Keighren M.
    Journal: Genetics; 1980 Jun; 95(2):305-16. PubMed ID: 6451473.
    Abstract:
    The am locus of Neurospora codes for NADP-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH). Four new am mutants that produced mutationally altered GDH have been characterized. Mutant am119 is a CRM-negative, complementing mutant that maps between am2 and am1. The other three mutants are CRM formers that produce varieties of GDH that can be activated by glutamate or succinate. The GDH of am130 and am131 is similar in terms of activation properties to that of am3. The GDH of am122 requires very high concentrations of dicarboxylate for activity. The mutation in am130 maps between am14 and am2 and resulted in a replacement at residue 75 of the GDH (pro leads to ser). The mutation in am122 maps near am11 and apparently resulted in the replacement of the tryptophan residue at position 389 with an unknown amino acid. The mutation in am131 maps between am2 and am1.
