    Notes: Abstract Mutations sn (snowflake) JL301 and C136, in the centromere region of linkage group I in Neurospora crassa, are at 0.6–3.0 map units to the left of the os-4 locus. Strains carrying snJL301 produce very short aerial hyphae and only arthroconidia, and do not grow in high salt media. snC136 strains produce aerial hyphae, with abnormally large and rounded blastoconidia, at the top of the agar slant cultures, and revert to wild-type growth in high salt media. Studies with forced primary heterokaryons indicate that snJL301 is recessive while snC136 is a semi-dominant and gene-dose dependent allele, with respect to the wild-type. Taken together the results show that: (1) the sn mutations are allelic with a differential pleiotropic phenotype, and (2) snC136 may code for a partially functioning gene product while sn-JL301 appears to be a null allele.

    Notes: Abstract P59Nc is a polypeptide associated with bundles of cytoplasmic and nuclear filamentous structures of 8–10 nm of diameter in Neurospora crassa cells. It is immunologically unrelated to both higher and lower eucaryotic tubulin and actin proteins and is detected weakly by the anti IFA monoclonal antibody. We analyze here the immunological relationship between P59Nc and intermediate filament (IF) mammalian proteins by using anti P59Nc, anti keratin, anti vimentin and anti IFA antibodies. Anti P59Nc antibodies detected a 59 kDa polypeptide from rat and bovine tissues which copurifies with polypeptides of the IF family. Neither P59Nc nor the 59 kDa rat polypeptide were recognized by anti keratin or anti vimentin antibodies. Immunostaining of rat tongue sections with anti P59Nc antibodies showed that the 59 kDa rat polypeptide is present in the cortical cytoplasm of suprabasal epithelial cells. The results indicate that P59Nc shares common antigenic determinants with a still uncharacterized 59 kDa polypeptide from mammalian tissues which have extractability and immunological properties similar to those of IF polypeptides and shows a tissular distribution and a cellular localization similar but distinguishable from keratins.
