Abstract

In the hymenomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium, a 10-fold increase in intracellular cyclic AMP preceded the onset of the two idiophasic activities, lignin degradation and veratryl alcohol production. Further, addition of L-glutamate during this period reduced cyclic AMP levels and suppressed ligninolytic activity.
