    Notes: Summary The nucleotide sequence of the Aspergillus niger tryptophan C (trpC) gene was determined. Northern hybridization and S1-mapping experiments showed the presence of a 2.6 kb trpC poly(A)+ RNA with two very short (5 and 6 nucleotides) noncoding 5′-regions. Comparison of the predicted amino acid sequence with that of trp gene proteins of pro- and eukaryotic organisms revealed three functional domains (G, C, F) in the A. niger TrpC protein which catalyse the glutarnine amidotransferase reaction (GAT), the indole-3-glycerol phosphate synthase reaction (IGPS) and the N-(5′-phosphoribosyl) anthranilate isomerase reaction (PRAI), respectively. These domains are highly conserved and bordered by short areas showing less homology. Within the F domain of the trpC gene in A. niger, A. nidulans and Neurospora crassa, a region encoding 30 amino acids was found which is absent in the analogous genes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and prokaryotic organisms. This region has features of a mutated in-phase intron.

    Notes: Summary The development of a homologous transformation system for Aspergillus niger is described. The system is based on the use of an orotidine-5′-phosphate decarboxylase deficient mutant (pyrG) and a vector, pAB4-1, which contains the functional A. niger pyrG gene as a selection marker. Transformation of the A. niger pyrG mutant with pAB4-1 resulted in the appearance of stable Pyr+ transformants at a frequency of 40 transformants per μg of DNA. In 90% of these transformants integration had occurred at the resident pyrG locus, resulting either in replacement of the mutant allele by the wild-type allele (60%) or in insertion of one or two copies of the vector (40%). The A. niger pyrG mutant could also be transformed with the vector pDJB2 containing the pyr4 gene of Neurospora crassa, at a frequency of 2 transformants per μg of DNA. Integration at the resident pyrG locus was not found with this vector. The vector pAB4-1 is also capable of transforming an Aspergillus nidulans pyrG mutant to Pyr+. The pyrG transformation system was used for the introduction of a non-selectable gene into A. niger.
