چکیده

Three lignin peroxidase (LiP) genes from the basidiomycete Phanerochaete chrysosporium were cloned on a single 30 kb cosmid insert. One gene, GLG5, is the genomic equivalent of a previously reported cDNA clone, CLG5. The other two LiP genes are transcriptionally convergent and map to a position approximately 15 kb downstream of GLG5. The translational stop codons of these genes are separated by 1.3 kb. Analysis of homokaryons established allelic relationships to previously described LiP clones. Using clamped homogeneous electrical field electrophoresis (CHEF), seven chromosomal bands were resolved from P. chrysosporium genomic DNA. On CHEF gel Southern blots, the LiP gene family was localized to a single, dimorphic chromosome.

A 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...

Organization and differential regulation of a cluster of lignin peroxidase genes of Phanerochaete chrysosporium.

The lignin peroxidases of Phanerochaete chrysosporium are encoded by a minimum of 10 closely related genes. Physical and genetic mapping of a cluster of eight lip genes revealed six genes occurring in pairs and transcriptionally convergent, suggesting that portions of the lip family arose by gene duplication events. The completed sequence of lipG and lipJ, together with previously published seq...

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...

Expression 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...

Degradation of Phenol Derivatives by a Phanerochaete Chrysosporium Strain

The white rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium has significant pollutant-degrading capabilities with its oxidoreductases. The lignin-degrading enzyme system of this fungus also allows the breakdown of different organic pollutants (xenobiotics). The most significant enzymes in these processes are the lignin peroxidase and the manganese peroxidase. In this study, Phanerochaete chrysosporium str...
