Abstract
ATP and cAMP in 4 strains of mycelial fungi were determined by lucifer in-luciferase system and HPLC respectively. Cellulase synthesis was su bject to the dual control of ATP and cAMP. No matter what carbon sours e was used, cellulase synthesis was repressed if intracellular ATP con centration was over 10(-7)mg/ml. Exogenous cAMP could increase cellula se synthesis under depression conditions.
