Cloning and characterization of the pho-2+ gene encoding a repressible alkaline phosphatase in Neurospora crassa.
The Neurospora crassa phosphate-repressible alkaline phosphatase-encoding gene pho-2+ was cloned and its nucleotide sequence was determined. An open reading frame was found that contains four introns and encodes a putative protein of 555 amino acids. 'Activator-independent expression' of ectopically integrated pho-2+ was observed, as noted before for ectopically integrated pho-4+.
