Journal ArticleDOI
Lessons from the Genome Sequence of Neurospora crassa: Tracing the Path from Genomic Blueprint to Multicellular Organism
Katherine A. Borkovich,Lisa A. Alex,Oded Yarden,Michael Freitag,Gloria E. Turner,Nick D. Read,Stephan Seiler,Deborah Bell-Pedersen,John V. Paietta,Nora Plesofsky,Michael Plamann,Marta Goodrich-Tanrikulu,Ulrich Schulte,Gertrud Mannhaupt,Frank E. Nargang,Alan Radford,Claude P. Selitrennikoff,James E. Galagan,Jay C. Dunlap,Jennifer J.

TL;DR: An analysis of over 1,100 of the ∼10,000 predicted proteins encoded by the genome sequence of the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa reveals potential new targets for antifungals as well as loci implicated in human and plant physiology and disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Highly efficient gene replacements in Neurospora strains deficient for nonhomologous end-joining.
TL;DR: Results indicate that KU disruption strains are efficient recipients for gene targeting, and identify and disrupted Neurospora crassa genes homologous to human KU70 and KU80, which encode proteins that function in nonhomologous end-joining of double-stranded DNA breaks.
Journal ArticleDOI
A eukaryotic gene encoding an endonuclease that specifically repairs DNA damaged by ultraviolet light.
Hirohiko Yajima,Masashi Takao,Shinji Yasuhira,Jihe Zhao,Chizu Ishii,Hirokazu Inoue,Akira Yasui +6 more
TL;DR: A new eukaryotic DNA repair gene is isolated from N.crassa by its ability to complement UV‐sensitive Escherichia coli cells and confers UV‐resistance on various DNA repair‐deficient mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and a human xeroderma pigmentosum cell line.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation and characterization of MMS-sensitive mutants of Neurosporacrassa
Hirokazu Inoue,Chizu Ishii +1 more
TL;DR: At least two new loci involved in the repair of MMS damage have been identified and the possibility that some of these new mutants are in new repair pathways is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of a Neurospora crassa photolyase-deficient mutant generated by repeat induced point mutation of the phr gene.
M. Shimura,Yukishige Ito,Chizu Ishii,H. Yajima,H. Linden,T. Harashima,Akira Yasui,Hirokazu Inoue +7 more
TL;DR: The results show that the phr mutation has no influence on dark repair, and N. crassa photolyase is not a blue light receptor in the signal transduction that induces carotenoid biosynthesis.
