nirA — Neurospora crassa
Summary
NCU03120, also known as nirA, encodes a Zn(2)-C6 fungal-type domain-containing protein with DNA-binding transcription factor activity. This gene is located on chromosome 1 of Neurospora crassa and is associated with nitrogen utilization, nitrate assimilation, and regulation of nitrogen utilization. The encoded protein localizes to the nucleus and is linked to chromatin modeling and DNA-dependent transcription. Related genes in other species connect the family to nitrogen metabolism regulation.
