Slow-growing (inl+/-) spontaneous mutants have been isolated from an inositol requiring (inl) strain of Neurospora crassa that produces defective myo-inositol-1-phosphate synthase (MIPS), the enzyme responsible for the production of inositol-1-phosphate from glucose-6-phosphate. The defective enzyme has some residual activity. In the inl+/- strain the synthesis of the defective enzyme is enhanced, which enables the strain to grow slowly on minimal medium. The mutation (opi1) responsible for the partial inositol independence segregates independently from the inositol locus, and suppresses the inositolless character by overproduction of defective MIPS. opi1 acting upon the wild type (inl+) allele increases MIPS production and causes inositol excretion.
