摘要
Expression of the Aspergillus nidulans xylanase gene xlnC is subject to regulation by carbon catabolite repression and ambient pH. In the presence of glucose, xlnC transcription is repressed by the zinc finger transcription factor CreA. These data have been confirmed using the extremely derepressed mutant creAd30. Expression of xlnC is elevated at alkaline ambient pH and also in alkalinity-mimicking A. nidulans mutants.
