Method to identify specific alleles of a Phanerochaete chrysosporium gene encoding lignin peroxidase.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method to identify and differentiate allelic variants of the gene encoding lignin peroxidase isozyme H8 is presented. The strategy involves amplifying a variable region of the gene's carboxy terminus by use of the polymerase chain reaction and then probing with allele-specific oligonucleotides.

Temporal expression of the major lignin peroxidase genes of Phanerochaete chrysosporium.
DNA probes specific for the genes encoding major lignin peroxidase (LIP) isozymes H2, H8, and H10 of Phanerochaete chrysosporium were constructed. These probes were used to study the temporal expression of the three lip genes in defined low-nitrogen medium. H2 gene transcripts were produced at high levels on days 4, 5, and 7 and at low levels on day 6, while the H8 gene transcripts peaked on da...
متن کاملExpression of phanerochaete chrysosporium genes encoding lignin peroxidases, manganese peroxidases, and glyoxal oxidase in wood
Expression of Phanerochaete chrysosporium genes encoding ligninolytic enzymes was assessed in wood. Poly(A) RNA was extracted from colonized wood chips by magnetic capture, and specific transcripts were quantified by competitive reverse transcriptase PCR. mRNA levels varied substantially among lignin peroxidase genes, and transcript patterns were dramatically different from those in previous st...
متن کاملWhole-Genome De Novo Sequencing of the Lignin-Degrading Wood Rot Fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium (ATCC 20696)
Phanerochaete chrysosporium (ATCC 20696) has a catabolic ability to degrade lignin. Here, we report whole-genome sequencing used to identify genes related to lignin modification. We determined the 39-Mb draft genome sequence of this fungus, comprising 13,560 predicted gene models. Gene annotation provided crucial information about the location and function of protein-encoding genes.
متن کاملA homokaryotic derivative of a Phanerochaete chrysosporium strain and its use in genomic analysis of repetitive elements.
Analysis of complex gene families in the lignin-degrading basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium has been hampered by the dikaryotic nuclear condition. To facilitate genetic investigations in P. chrysosporium strain BKM-F-1767, we isolated a homokaryon from regenerated protoplasts. The nuclear condition was established by PCR amplification of five unlinked genes followed by probing with alle...
متن کاملHomologous expression of recombinant lignin peroxidase in Phanerochaete chrysosporium.
The glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (gpd) promoter was used to drive expression of lip2, the gene encoding lignin peroxidase (LiP) isozyme H8, in primary metabolic cultures of Phanerochaete chrysosporium. The expression vector, pUGL, also contained the Schizophyllum commune ura1 gene as a selectable marker. pUGL was used to transform a P. chrysosporium Ura11 auxotroph to prototrophy. U...
