Abstract
Mycelial extracts from Neurospora crassa strains having any one of five different mutations of the cr-1 allele (“crisp”) exhibited an adenylate cyclase specific activity 2 to 3% of that found in wild-type strains. The enzyme deficiency seemed to be specific for the cr-1 mutation but not for the “crisp” morphology and recessive in heterocaryons carrying mutated and wild-type cr-1 alleles. The reduced adenylate cyclase activity detected in extracts from cr-1 mutants was not due to an impairment in the extraction of membranes, to a preferential inactivation of the enzyme after extraction, or to the presence of inhibitors.
