Amino-acid Sequence Homologies between the NADP-dependent Glutamate Dehydrogenase of Neurospora and the Bovine Enzyme

Nature New Biology volume 241, pages 42–43 (1973)Cite this article

Abstract

THE NADP-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) (EC 1.4.1.4.) of Neurospora crassa is interesting because of the existence of many structural gene mutants producing functionally distinct GDH variants1. Study of the modified enzymes may illuminate the functional role of parts of the molecule containing amino-acid substitutions.
