Isolation and Characterization of the mheA (Most Highly Expressed) Gene of Aspergillus oryzae
نویسندگان
چکیده
The amino acid sequence of the mheA gene of Aspergillus oryzae encodes a putative metallothionein-like protein 1. The size of the mheA transcript was 497 nt and the mheA promoter was induced by glucose, consistent with results of analysis by Northern hybridization and with the pdcA promoter, respectively.

Isolation of a novel promoter for efficient protein production in Aspergillus oryzae.
A novel protein overexpression system of Aspergillus oryzae was constructed. Five promoters which originate from A. oryzae expressed sequence tag (EST) clones in submerged culture were obtained by genome walking. These were subjected to beta-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter assays. The promoter of manganese superoxide dismutase-encoding gene (sodM) showed the most GUS production. The sodM gene was ...
متن کاملGenotypic Characterization of Fungal Species Isolated From Broiler Breeder Chickens, Dead-In-Shell and Hatched Chicks
To investigate the prevalence of fungal agents in local Egyptian broiler breeder chicken’s premises, tracheal and cloacal swabs from chickens, feed, and water samples were collected. The targeted breed's dead-in-shell eggs and newly hatched chick’s samples were also tested. All fungal isolates were morphologically typed and the predominant fungal species were further subjected to molecular typi...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of the alkaline protease gene of Aspergillus oryzae.
The genomic DNA for the alkaline protease (Alp) of the fungus Aspergillus oryzae was isolated using synthetic oligonucleotides as hydridization probes, and the complete nucleotide sequence was identified. The Alp gene is 1374 nucleotides long and contains three introns, one of which is in the pro region and two in the mature coding region. Sequences related to the TATA box (TATAAAT) and the CAA...
متن کاملCloning and characterization of the nagA gene that encodes beta-n-acetylglucosaminidase from Aspergillus nidulans and its expression in Aspergillus oryzae.
We isolated a beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase encoding gene and its cDNA from the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans, and designated it nagA. The nagA gene contained no intron and encoded a polypeptide of 603 amino acids with a putative 19-amino acid signal sequence. The deduced amino acid sequence was very similar to the sequence of Candida albicans Hex1 and Trichoderma harzianum Nag1. Yeast...

A total of seventeen species belonging to thirteen genera of fungi were isolated from soil samples collected from diverse part of city Bareilly during November 2012 to March 2013 at three intervals. The mycoflora were isolated on Yeast powder soluble starch (YpSs) agar added with antibacterial substances streptomycin. Identification and characterization of the mycoflora were made with the help ...
