A gene which contains the nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:1 from nucleotide 671 to nucleotide 6295 or a nucleotide sequence which can be obtained therefrom by substitution, insertion or deletion of up to 30%, preferably up to 10%, particularly preferably up to 20%, especially preferably up to 5%, of the nucleotides, and whose gene product has the enzymatic activity of an adenylate cyclase, and its use.

Gene for adenylate cyclase and its use

The present invention relates to genomic DNA sequences obtained from terminal sequencing of random genomic fragments of the filamentous fungus,, to the sequences obtained therewith and the use of the sequences for forensic identification, to characterize genes and gene organization or this ascomycete by inter-genomic comparison, to identify biosynthetic genes that can be used as selection markers, to isolate promoters and terminators for application in a homologous as well as heterologous context, to find putative centromere containing clones, chromosome mapping, chromosome identifying, general information about chromosome organization and in addition to identify ORF containing SRS sequences with no homology to,or any other organism which allows the identification of,specific genes.

Fungal genes required for normal growth and development

The invention relates to genes isolated from,that code for proteins essential for normal fungal growth and development. The invention also includes the methods of using these proteins to discover new fungicides, based on the essentiality of the gene for normal growth and development. The invention can also be used in a screening assay to identify inhibitors that are potential fungicides.

Fungal target genes and methods

The present invention relates to the terminal sequencing of random genomic fragments performed with the filamentous fungus,, to the sequences obtained therewith and the use of the sequences for forensic identification, to characterize genes and gene organization of this ascomycete by inter-genomic comparison, to identify biosynthetic genes that can be used as selection markers, to isolate promotors and terminators for application in a homologous as well as heterologous context, to find putative centromere containing clones, chromosome mapping, chromosome identifying, general information about chromosome organization and in addition to identify ORF containing SRS sequences with no homology to,or any other organism which allows the identification of,specific genes.
