title: L-ornithine transaminase synthesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: Induction by allophanate, intermediate and inducer of the urea degradative pathway adds to arginine induction.
abstract: Yeast ornithine transaminase is known to be induced by arginine and ornithine, through the action of regulatory elements common to arginase induction. We show here that it is subject to a second induction circuit, that which is responsible for urea amidolyase and urea permease induction by allophanate and defined by the regulatory mutants durL (-) and durM (-)
