title: The regulation of NADP-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase in Aspergillus nidulans.
abstract: The regulation of NADP-linked isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP-IDH) has been studied in wild-type and mutant strains of Aspergillus nidulans. In the wild-type strain studied, the levels of NADP-IDH vary in a similar way to those of acetamidase, acetyl-CoA synthase, isocitrate lyase and malate synthase under all growth conditions used. Similarly, fac mutants, which are altered in the regulation of these enzymes of acetate utilization, are affected in NADP-IDH levels in a parallel fashion, as are cre mutants, which show altered carbon catabolite repression of this group of enzymes. Possible functions of the NADP-IDH enzyme are considered.
