A Gene from Ganoderma lucidum with Similarity to nmrA of Filamentous Ascomycetes Contributes to Regulating AreA

Fungal AreA is a key nitrogen metabolism transcription factor in nitrogen metabolism repression (NMR). Studies have shown that there are different ways to regulate AreA activity in yeast and filamentous ascomycetes, but in Basidiomycota, how AreA is regulated is unknown. Here, a gene from Ganoderma lucidum with similarity to nmrA of filamentous ascomycetes was identified. The NmrA interacted with the C-terminal of AreA according to yeast two-hybrid assay. In order to determine the effect of NmrA...
