Identification of a common secondary mutation in the Neurospora crassa knockout collection conferring a cell fusion-defective phenotype [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2023 Gene-deletion mutants represent a powerful tool to study gene function. The filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa is a well-established model organism, and features a comprehensive gene knockout strain collection. While these mutant strains have been used

Developing a Temperature-Inducible Transcriptional Rheostat in Neurospora crassa [PDF]
mBio, 2023 Heat shock protein (HSP)-encoding genes (hsp), part of the highly conserved heat shock response (HSR), are known to be induced by thermal stress in several organisms. In Neurospora crassa, three hsp genes, hsp30, hsp70, and hsp80, have been characterized;

Gene expression differences among three Neurospora species reveal genes required for sexual reproduction in Neurospora crassa. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Many fungi form complex three-dimensional fruiting bodies, within which the meiotic machinery for sexual spore production has been considered to be largely conserved over evolutionary time.

Human-like eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 from Neurospora crassa. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 (eIF3) is a key regulator of translation initiation, but its in vivo assembly and molecular functions remain unclear.

A global search for novel transcription factors impacting the Neurospora crassa circadian clock
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2021 In order to identify new players modulating the circadian clock in the model Neurospora crassa, we adopted a reverse genetics strategy. Thus, we focused on transcription factors knockouts and crossed them to strains containing circadian luciferase ...

A relationship between carotenoid accumulation and the distribution of species of the fungus Neurospora in Spain. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The ascomycete fungus Neurospora is present in many parts of the world, in particular in tropical and subtropical areas, where it is found growing on recently burned vegetation. We have sampled the Neurospora population across Spain.
