Proteins involved in microbody biogenesis and degradation in Aspergillus nidulans.
Fungal microbodies (peroxisomes) are inducible organelles that proliferate in response to nutritional cues. Proteins involved in peroxisome biogenesis/proliferation are designated peroxins and are encoded by PEX genes. An autophagy-related process, termed pexophagy, is responsible for the selective removal of peroxisomes from the cell. Several genes involved in pexophagy are also required for a...
متن کاملCUP promotes deadenylation and inhibits decapping of mRNA targets.
CUP is an eIF4E-binding protein (4E-BP) that represses the expression of specific maternal mRNAs prior to their posterior localization. Here, we show that CUP employs multiple mechanisms to repress the expression of target mRNAs. In addition to inducing translational repression, CUP maintains mRNA targets in a repressed state by promoting their deadenylation and protects deadenylated mRNAs from...
متن کاملNonsense-mediated mRNA decay mutation in Aspergillus nidulans.
An Aspergillus nidulans mutation, designated nmdA1, has been selected as a partial suppressor of a frameshift mutation and shown to truncate the homologue of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) surveillance component Nmd2p/Upf2p. nmdA1 elevates steady-state levels of premature termination codon-containing transcripts, as demonstrated using mutations in genes encoding...
متن کاملAspergillus nidulans
Light-dependent conidiation in the filamentous ascomycete, Aspergillus nidulans, is contingent on the allelic state of the velvet (veA) gene. Light dependence is abolished by a mutation in this gene (veAl) , which allows conidiation to occur in the absence of light. We have isolated and characterized six extragenic suppressors of veAl that restore the light-dependent conidiation phenotype. Alle...
متن کاملMitosis in Aspergillus nidulans.
Mitosis in growing hyphae of haploid and diploid Aspergillus nidulans has been studied with the light microscope in Helly-fixed preparations. At the periphery of the nucleus a sharply defined granule is invariably found which has strong affinity for acid fuchsin. Mitosis begins with the duplication of this granule and the development inside the nucleus of a gradually lengthening fibre between t...
