Abstract

Mutant strains of Neurospora crassa have been selected which grow on media containing vanadate, an inhibitor of the plasma membrane ATPase. The mutations all map to a single region (designated van ) on the left arm of linkage group VII. The van mutants are unable to take up vanadate from the medium and are also deficient in the uptake of phosphate via a derepressible, high-affinity phosphate transport system. In the van mutants, the K m for phosphate transport is elevated as much as 35-fold, indicating that the van locus may code for a structural component of the high-affinity phosphate transport system.
