Abstract
Emerson and Cushing (1) isolated a strain of Neurospora which instead of being inhibited in growth by sulfonamides requires the drug for growth at high temperatures. It seemed as if the roles of p-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and sulfanilamide (SA) were reversed,(2) the mold being poisoned by PABA and this action being antagonized by SA. The evidence suggested that SA took the place of PABA as a metabolite.
