Abstract

In this paper we compile the G/C-content, the codon bias, and consensus sequences for the translation initiation and the intron splicing sites from 19 nuclear genes of the major ß-lactam antibiotic producer Acremonium chrysogenum. Our data are compared with those from other filamentous fungi, such as Aspergillus nidulan, Neurospora crassa, and Sordaria macrospora.
