The production of an extracellular deaminase activity involved with the utilization of amino acids as sole sources of nitrogen is under the control of the nit-2 locus of Neurospora crassa. This locus is the sole major nitrogen regulatory locus described for N. crassa and is believed to encode a positive effector required for induction of activities involved with the utilization of alternate nitrogen sources. Production of deaminase activity requires the lifting of nitrogen metabolite repression, the presence of a functional nit-2 gene product, and specific induction by amino acids. Additional parameters of enzyme production are described.
与将氨基酸作为唯一氮源利用相关的细胞外脱氨酶活性的产生,受粗糙脉孢菌nit-2基因座的控制。该基因座是已描述的粗糙脉孢菌唯一主要的氮调节基因座,据信它编码一种诱导与利用替代氮源相关活性所需的正效应物。脱氨酶活性的产生需要解除氮代谢物阻遏、存在功能性的nit-2基因产物以及氨基酸的特异性诱导。文中还描述了酶产生的其他参数。
