Mechanism of nickel resistance in a cobalt-resistant wall-less mutant of Neurospora crassa (fz; sg; os-1).

Abstract:

:A cobalt-resistant wall-less mutant of N. crassa (Cor-sl) characterized previously was also found to be 3-fold more resistant to nickel when compared to the parent wall-less mutant (W-sl). The Cor-sl strain accumulates relatively lower amounts of nickel when compared to W-sl. Sub-cellular fractionation showed significant quantities of nickel to be associated with nuclear and mitochondrial fractions in both the wall-less mutants. However significant differences were observed in vacuolar fractions of W-sl and Cor-sl strains. Fractionation of cell-free extracts on Sephadex G-10 column resolved nickel into two peaks, of which the peak II in Cor-sl constituted 70% of nickel, while the same in W-sl was about 30%. A 3-fold increase in histidine content was observed in case of Cor-sl as compared to W-sl strain, suggesting its role in Ni-resistance.
