Question
Consider the pathway for the synthesis of the amino acid arginine in Neurospora:
ARG-E ARG-F ARG-H
ornithine --> citrulline --> argininosuccinate --> arginine
Mutant strains of Neurospora are grown in minimal media supplements as follows. Each mutantstrain carries only a single mutation. Growth is shown by (+) and no growth is shown by (-).
Supplements
Pair each mutant strain with the correct gene in the pathway
Mutant Strain minimal ornithine citrulline argininosuccinate arginine A - - - + + B - - + + + C - - - - +Explanation / Answer
pairing of the mutant strain with correct gene will be as follows:
strain a- ARG F
strain b- ARG E
strain c- ARG H
