R.YR 1985 T1 The all2 Gene is Required for the Induction of the Purine Deamination Pathway in Schizosaccharomyces pombe JF Microbiology, VO 131 IS 3 SP 527 OP 532 DO https://doi.org/10.1099/00221287-131-3-527 PB Microbiology Society, SN 1465-2080, AB Five mutants were isolated at the all2 gene on the basis of their inability to utilize hypoxanthine as a sole source of nitrogen. These mutants failed to utilize the purines adenine, hypoxanthine, xanthine, uric acid, allantoin and allantoic acid, although they could utilize urea and ammonium. The all2 mutants appeared to be defective in purine induction of uricase, allantoinase, allantoicase and ureidoglycollase activities but retained wild-type activity of the constitutively synthesized urease. The all2 mutations were recessive., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/micro/10.1099/00221287-131-3-527
