Regulation of Arginase Activity by Intermediates of the Arginine Biosynthetic Pathway in <i>Neurospora crassa</i> is a research paper published in Journal of Bacteriology (1972). On theSindex it has a DataRank of 2.5. It has been cited 18 times, with 18 citing works in its 1-hop citation network.
It has been found that, in Neurospora crassa , arginine synthesized from exogenous citrulline was not as effectively hydrolyzed as exogenous arginine. This was explained by the observed inhibition of arginase in vitro and in vivo by citrulline. The high arginine pool formed from exogenous citrulline feedback inhibits the arginine pathway. These two factors allow exogenous citrulline to be used adventitiously and efficiently as an arginine source. Finally, it was found that ornithine was a strong inhibitor of arginase. This suggests that the characteristically high ornithine pool of minimal cultures of Neurospora may act to control a potentially wasteful catabolism of endogenous arginine by arginase.

Ranked by citation count — the same ordering the engine uses when summing log1p(Cq) over citers.
DataRank blends this paper's own citation count with the influence of the papers that cite it. Here, roughly 18% comes from its base citations and 82% from the citation network (18 citing papers contributed measurable signal).
Citers are pulled from OpenAlex sorted by cited_by_count:descand capped per paper, so when the cap binds we keep the highest-signal references and the score is reproducible across reruns.
