Disease relevance of Neurospora

 

High impact information on Neurospora

  • vvd, a gene regulating light responses in Neurospora, encodes a novel member of the PAS/LOV protein superfamily [6].
  • One of these, SDE1, is a plant homolog of QDE-1 in Neurospora crassa that encodes an RNA-dependent RNA polymerase [7].
  • Thus, in both the phasing of dark expression and the response to light mPer1 is most similar to the Neurospora clock gene frq [8].
  • By fusing the encoding presequence of subunit 9 of the Neurospora ATPase to a restriction fragment containing the bI4 maturase coding sequence, we have constructed a hybrid gene that can be translated on yeast cytosolic ribosomes [9].
  • The group I intron in the Neurospora mitochondrial large rRNA gene is not self-splicing in vitro [10].

Gene context of Neurospora

  • We cloned, sequenced and physically mapped the MAS20 gene and found that the protein is homologous to the MOM19 import receptor from Neurospora crassa [27].
  • We isolated the TIM23 complex of Neurospora crassa [28].
  • Although some continuity in the chromosomal location of the MAT locus can be traced throughout hemiascomycete evolution and even to Neurospora, the gene content of the locus has changed with the loss of an HMG domain gene (MATa2) from the MATa idiomorph shortly after HO was recruited [29].
  • The remaining three residues, Trp-120, Leu-123, and Phe-124, are highly conserved between GCN4 and its Neurospora counterpart, cpc-1 [30].
  • Of particular interest is the comparable increase in a nuclease under the control of the RAD52 gene; this enzyme has been identified by the use of antibody raised against a similar enzyme from Neurospora crassa [31].
