Cross-pathway regulation: tryptophan-mediated control of histidine and arginine biosynthetic enzymes in Neurospora crassa

Cross-pathway regulation: tryptophan-mediated control of histidine and arginine biosynthetic enzymes in Neurospora crassa

M Carsiotis et al. J Bacteriol. 1974 Sep.

Abstract

In Neurospora crassa, the starvation of tryptophan mutants for tryptophan resulted in the derepression of tryptophan, histidine, and arginine biosynthetic enzymes. This tryptophan-mediated derepression of histidine and arginine biosynthetic enzymes occurred despite the fact that the tryptophan-starved cells had a higher intracellular concentration of histidine and arginine than did nonstarved cells.
