Penicillium chrysogenum transcription of the lys3 gene shows a 3fold increase in the transcript level of this gene in strain L2 as compared with the parental strain Wis 54-1255 up

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction L2 mutant is deficient in homoaconitase activity since it is complemented by the Aspergillus nidulans lysF gene. Wis 54-1255 gene lys3 complements the L2 mutation. Accumulation of homocitric acid in the L2 strain, resulting from the mutation in the lys3 (homoaconitase) gene, is required for the upregulation of the lysine biosynthetic genes. The mutant Lys3 protein is altered in a region required to bind the [4Fe-4S] cluster Penicillium chrysogenum
physiological function lysF gene can complement the Penicillium chrysogenum L2 mutant deficient in homoaconitase activity Aspergillus nidulans
